This page contains most of the Markdown syntax elements and several macros, so that you can check if the output looks ok in the various output formats. It doesn't cover all the edge cases, but it provides a solid start.

(The above paragraph is tagged as summary!)

The Basics

In this paragraph you will find some bold text, and some italicized text, and some code. This statement is false .1

The following text is a blockquote

In a blockquote you might see something important, and something emphasized.

Lists

Sometimes you want ordered lists:

  1. First item
  2. Second item
  3. Third item

On other occasions an unordered list is all it takes.

  • First item
  • Second item
  • Third item

However, sometimes there is more to say about some of the bullet points:

  • this one is simple
  • but this one
    • requires more explanation
    • because it is more complex
  • this one’s more straightforward

You can also have a list of tasks:

  • that was easy
  • this one is yet to be done
  • this one will never be finished

Horizontal Rule

A horizontal rule:

(this text is below the horizontal rule)

Here’s a link to another page, a link to a heading on this page, and here’s a term from the glossary (you should see a tool-tip on mouse-over)

Image

This is the caption of the image above – a placeholder, just like the image itself.

Definition List

this is the term
and this is the definition of the term, hopefully that is enough explanation.

Table

Here’s a simple table

Column 1 Column 2
Row 1 Row 2
foo bar

Fenced Code Block

import os

def myMethod(foo, bar):
    # ignore bar
    return foo

No, that’s it, it shouldn’t go any deeper.
