Getting Started with Markdown and custom elements
Markdown is easy to learn and use. To get started, all you need is a text editor and a basic understanding of the syntax. Here are some of the most common Markdown syntax elements:
Headings
Headings are used to organize content and create a hierarchy. In Markdown, headings are created by adding one or more hash symbols (#) before the text.
# Heading 1 ## Heading 2 ### Heading 3
Bold and Italic Text
To make text bold, surround it with two asterisks. To make it italic, surround it with one asterisk.
**Bold text** *Italic text*
Lists
To create an unordered list, start each line with a hyphen (-) or an asterisk (*). To create an ordered list, start each line with a number followed by a period.
- Item 1 - Item 2 - Item 3 1. Item 1 2. Item 2 3. Item 3
Links
To create a link, surround the link text with square brackets and the URL with parentheses.
[Link text](http://www.example.com)
Images
To add an image, use the same syntax as a link but include an exclamation point before the square brackets.
![Alt text](url/image.jpg)
Code Blocks
To add a code block, surround the code with three backticks.
function helloWorld() { console.log("Hello, world!"); }
