Working with Markdown

This posts contains useful markdown syntax that will help you some time in the future. The examples are not displayed in HTML but Markdown because I use ~~~ around them.

Headings

1

# h1 heading
## h2 heading
### h3 heading

Bold and italics

**This text is bold**
*And this italics*

Special formatting

Use special formatting when the need arises:

1

- ~~strike through this text~~
- ==highlight this text== text
- \*escaped characters in this text instead showing text in italics\*

Links

1
[this is a link](to this file or URL)

Images

![this is the alt text](for the image in this location)

Writing code blocks

You can insert two types of code elements in Markdown:

• Inline code within a line of text: Wrap any word or words in back-ticks (`):

  1
    Create a `code snippet` like this.
  

• Larger code snippets in code blocks: Use triple back ticks (```)

    ```
    .my-link {
        text-decoration: underline;
    }
    ```
  

You can implement code highlighting for different languages, for example HTML:

HTML:

```html
<li class="ml-1 mr-1">
    <a target="_blank" href="#">
    <i class="fab fa-twitter"></i>
    </a>
</li>
```
