Markdown is a lightweight markup language that is commonly used for formatting text on the web. It is designed to be easy to read and write, and it uses simple, plain-text syntax to format text as headings, lists, bold and italic text, and links.
Here is a list of some common Markdown syntax:
#: A single # symbol is used to create a level-1 heading. More # symbols can be used to create deeper headings, such as ## for a level-2 heading, ### for a level-3 heading, and so on.
*, -, +: These symbols are used to create unordered lists. For example:
- Item 1
- Item 2
- Item 3 1., 2., 3.: These symbols are used to create ordered lists. For example:
Item 1 Item 2 Item 3 : Text wrapped in double asterisks () is displayed as bold. For example: This text will be bold
: Text wrapped in single asterisks () is displayed as italic. For example: This text will be italic
Link text: This syntax is used to create a hyperlink. For example: Google
: This syntax is used to insert an image. The "alt text" is displayed if the image can't be shown for some reason. For example:
These are just a few examples of the many features of Markdown. For a complete reference, you may want to consult the original Markdown specification or other online resources.
