Using MarkDown for basic formatting means you can also use HTML for non basic formatting! Isn’t that great?

Headings

H1 headers are used to create floating boxes.

H2…H6 headers are used to create sections inside a floating box.

A special header is a timecode. It is directly and “transparently” transformed into an H2 section.

00:01:0000:02:00

This is a timecode section without a specific endpoint, thus the latter is considered the start point of the next timed section

00:02:00 00:10:00

This is a timecode section with a specific endpoint.

This is an H2 header

This is an H3 header

This is an H4 header

This is an H5 header
This is an H6 header

Text blocks

Blockquotes

Email-style angle brackets are used for blockquotes.

And, they can be nested.

  • You can quote a list.
  • Etc.

Code blocks

<code> spans are delimited by backticks.

You can include literal backticks like `this`.

Preformatted code blocks

Indent every line of a code block by at least 4 spaces or 1 tab.

This is a normal paragraph.

This is a preformatted
code block.

HORIZONTAL RULES

Three or more dashes or asterisks:
