A cheat sheet on MarkDown

This cheatsheet will make MarkDown much easier for you.

Headings :

To create a heading, add number signs (#) in front of a word or phrase. The number of number signs you use should correspond to the heading level. For example, to create a heading level three (<h3>), use three number signs (e.g., ### My Header).

Code Blocks:

To create code blocks, indent every line of the block by at least four spaces or one tab.

Using three backticks (```) will allow you to create Code Blocks.

Links :

To create a link, enclose the link text in brackets (e.g., [Duck Duck Go]) and then follow it immediately with the URL in parentheses (e.g., (duckduckgo.com)).

Images:

HTML:

Many Markdown applications allow you to use HTML tags in Markdown-formatted text. This is helpful if you prefer certain HTML tags to Markdown syntax. For example, some people find it easier to use HTML tags for images. Using HTML is also helpful when you need to change the attributes of an element, like specifying the color of text or changing the width of an image.

To use HTML, place the tags in the text of your Markdown-formatted file.
