To create a horizontal line, use three or more asterisks ( ***), hyphens ( -), or underscores ( _): Some text! - Next chapter or something! URLs and Email Addresses
MARKDOWN GITHUB CODE
Write the tests - Implement the functions - Fix the code formatting Horizontal Line Tasks lists are very useful when writing issues on GitHub, as one can then check or uncheck them without manually editing the Markdown source of the comment or description. Task ListsĪ task list (aka checklist or todo list) is an unordered list with each item having a checkbox in front, either checked or unchecked. One can mix the bullet characters in one list, but it’s a bad practice.
MARKDOWN GITHUB PLUS
To create unordered lists, use any of the following “bullet characters”: hyphen -, asterisk *, or plus sign +: - Item - Another item - Yet another item Markdown still fixes the counters and outputs the correct numbers: Use double > to create nested blockquotes. Blockquotesīlockquotes are designated by a > in front of them: > Veniet tempus quo ista quae nunc latent in lucem dies extrahat et longioris aevi diligentia. To create a code block with syntax highlighting, you can use the three backtick syntax and write the language name in front of it: This is the code: ```python for i in range(10): pass ```Īs of now, some 583 languages are being supported for syntax highlighting. To display triple and quadruple backticks inside a code block, wrap them inside quadruple backticks and put a zero-width non-joiner inside the quadruple backticks you want to display.

The alternative syntax is wrapping the code in three backticks. To display triple backticks in a code block, wrap them inside quadruple backticks. This is the code: ``` for i in range(10): pass ```

To create a code block, put four lines or a tab before it: This is the code: for i in range(10): pass If you want to write a code that has backticks in it, you can use double-backticks: This is the syntax: ``This is `code` inside a text.`` Code Block To write code in monospace font inside a regular text, enclose it in backticks: This is `code` inside text. And inside the word: b ***and***i which means bold ***and***italic. And it's not *un*important.Īnd to make something bold and italic, one can mix the two syntaxes: All of these are: ***bandi***, _ **bandi** _, ** _bandi_**, _ *bandi*_, * _bandi_ *, _bandi_. To make italic, use one underscore or one asterisk, and again, inside a middle only the asterisk syntax works: This is _italic_, so is *this*. Making bold can be done by double underscores or double asterisks: This is _bold_, so is **this**.īut inside a word, only the asterisks work: **Thi**s **i**s a **GitH**ub-**flavor **ed **Markdo**wn **cheatshe**et **focusi**ng **o**n **les**s-**kno **wn **featur**es. It is achieved by adding at least two spaces to the end of the line: This is line 1. The line break syntax is less known to the Markdown world. Paragraphs are chunks of text separated by at least a blank line: This is paragraph 1.

There is an alternate way of creating headings that only supports two levels: Heading Level 1 = Heading Level 2 - Paragraphs Try to use heading level 1 for the title of your document, h2 for the sections, h3 for subsections, and so on. Similar to HTML, there are 6 headings in Markdown: # H1 # H2 # H3 # H4 # H5 # H6
