Hello,

Would the following HTML snippet work for the website:

<li>
  <p>
    <a href="https://cocalc.com/doc/octave.html"><strong>CoCalc</strong></a>
is an online service that provides GNU Octave via Linux Terminals,
Jupyter Notebooks and X11 desktops, with full support for realtime
collaboration.  Moreover, CoCalc features a course management system
that is tailored for teaching courses online.
  </p>
  <p>
    The company Sagemath, Inc. develops and operates CoCalc.
    You can start working with the <a href="https://cocalc.com">online
service</a> for free
    and upgrade later for a better experience.
    You can also run your own CoCalc on-premises.
  </p>
</li>
