*Headings

To create a heading, add number signs (#) in front of a word or phrase. The number of number signs you use should correspond to the heading level. For example, to create a heading level three (h3), use three number signs (e.g., ### My Header).  

Heading level 1

Heading level 2

Heading level 3

Heading level 4

Heading level 5

Heading level 6

Heading level 7

Paragraphs

To create paragraphs, use a blank line to separate one or more lines of text.

Markdown

I really like using Markdown.

I think I’ll use it to format all of my documents from now on.

Bold

To bold text, add two asterisks or underscores before and after a word or phrase. To bold the middle of a word for emphasis, add two asterisks without spaces around the letters.

Italic

To italicize text, add one asterisk or underscore before and after a word or phrase. To italicize the middle of a word for emphasis, add one asterisk without spaces around the letters.

Italicized text is the cat’s meow.

Images

To add an image, add an exclamation mark (!), followed by alt text in brackets, and the path or URL to the image asset in parentheses. You can optionally add a title after the URL in the parentheses.
