Headings
Headings are used to organize and structure text. Markdown supports six levels of headings, from H1 to H6.
# H1 (Largest)
## H2
### H3
#### H4
##### H5
###### H6 (Smallest)
Emphasis
To add emphasis to your text, you can use bold, italic, or strikethrough formatting.
**bold**
_italic_
~~strikethrough~~
Lists
Markdown supports both ordered and unordered lists. To create an ordered list, use numbers, and to create an unordered list, use asterisks, pluses, or hyphens.
# Ordered List
1. Item 1
2. Item 2
3. Item 3
# Unordered List
- Item 1
- Item 2
- Item 3
Links
Links allow you to include hyperlinks in your text. To create a link, use the following syntax:
[Link text](URL)
Images
Markdown also supports the inclusion of images. To add an image, use the following syntax:
![Image Alt](URL)
Code Blocks
If you need to include code in your text, Markdown supports code blocks and inline code. To create a code block, use three backticks (`) before and after your code. To create inline code, use a single backtick (`) before and after your code.
# SingleLine Code
`console.log("Follow me")`
# Multiline Code
```javascript
function printer(text) {
console.log(text);
}
printer("AcidOP on top")
/```
Blockquotes
To create a blockquote, use the greater than symbol (>) before your text.
> Quote here
Horizontal Rules
To create a horizontal rule, use three hyphens (---), asterisks (***), or underscores (___).
---
# Or

# Or

Tables
Markdown also supports the creation of tables. To create a table, use the following syntax:
| Column 1 | Column 2 | Column 3 |
| --------------- | --------------- | --------------- |
| Row 1, Column 1 | Row 1, Column 2 | Row 1, Column 3 |
| Row 2, Column 1 | Row 2, Column 2 | Row 2, Column 3 |
