# Markdown Markdown is a text-to-HTML conversion tool for web writers. Markdown allows you to write using an easy-to-read, easy-to-write plain text format, then convert it to structurally valid XHTML (or HTML). Documentation: [Markdown Docs](https://daringfireball.net/projects/markdown/) RFC: [RFC 7763](https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc7763) GitHub Documentation: [Writing Markdown on GitHub](https://docs.github.com/en/get-started/writing-on-github) --- ## Cheat-Sheet ### Headings ```markdown # Heading 1 ## Heading 2 ### Heading 3 #### Heading 4 ##### Heading 5 ###### Heading 6 ``` Here is a heading: `# Heading`, **don't do this:** `#Heading` ### Emphasis ```markdown Emphasis, aka italics, with *asterisks* or _underscores_. Strong emphasis, aka bold, with **asterisks** or __underscores__. Combined emphasis with **asterisks and _underscores_**. Strikethrough uses two tildes. ~~Scratch this.~~ ``` ### Line Breaks ```markdown First line with two spaces after. And the next line. ``` ### Lists #### Ordered Lists ```markdown 1. First item 2. Second item 3. Third item ``` #### Unordered Lists ```markdown - First item - Second item - Third item ``` ### Links ```markdown Link with text: [link-text](https://www.google.com) ``` ### Images ```markdown Image with alt text: ![alt-text](https://camo.githubusercontent.com/4d89cd791580bfb19080f8b0844ba7e1235aa4becc3f43dfd708a769e257d8de/68747470733a2f2f636e642d70726f642d312e73332e75732d776573742d3030342e6261636b626c617a6562322e636f6d2f6e65772d62616e6e6572342d7363616c65642d666f722d6769746875622e6a7067) Image without alt text: ![](https://camo.githubusercontent.com/4d89cd791580bfb19080f8b0844ba7e1235aa4becc3f43dfd708a769e257d8de/68747470733a2f2f636e642d70726f642d312e73332e75732d776573742d3030342e6261636b626c617a6562322e636f6d2f6e65772d62616e6e6572342d7363616c65642d666f722d6769746875622e6a7067) ``` ### Code Blocks #### Inline Code Block ```markdown Inline `code` has `back-ticks around` it. ``` #### Blocks of Code
```javascript
var s = "JavaScript syntax highlighting";
alert(s);
```
 
```python
s = "Python syntax highlighting"
print s
```
 
```
No language indicated, so no syntax highlighting. 
But let's throw in a tag.
```
### Tables There must be at least 3 dashes separating each header cell. The outer pipes (|) are optional, and you don't need to make the raw Markdown line up prettily. ```markdown | Heading 1 | Heading 2 | Heading 3 | |---|---|---| | col1 | col2 | col3 | | col1 | col2 | col3 | ``` ### Task list To create a task list start line with square brackets with an empty space. Ex: [ ] and add text for task. To check the task replace the space between the bracket with "x". ```markdown [x] Write the post [ ] Update the website [ ] Contact the user ``` ## Reference Link: [markdown guide](https://www.markdownguide.org/cheat-sheet)
