What is Markdown?

*Markdown is a way to style text on the web. You control the display of the document; formatting words as bold or italic, adding images, and creating lists are just a few of the things we can do with Markdown. Mostly, Markdown is just regular text with a few non-alphabetic characters thrown in, like # or .

You can use Markdown most places around GitHub:

Gists Comments in Issues and Pull Requests Files with the .md or .markdown extension

You can use '#' for headlines, '*' for unordered lists ie bullet points, 1. for numbered lists and many more.

For example, for images we can use:

"GitHub Logo Format: Alt Text"

for links:

"http://github.com - automatic! GitHub"

for black quotes:

"As Kanye West said:

We're living the future so the present is our past."

We can make tables like this

"First Header Second Header
Content from cell 1 Content from cell 2
Content in the first column Content in the second column"

Dictionary:

MD File = mark down file with .md extension mark down cheat sheet = from github, shows all different codes we can use MD file = its used o give description about the website. usually a readme.md markdown file can be either made on github or locally.
