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 *.

Markdown is very popular to write README’s on Github. So, I’ve given you a tutorial of the markdown.

Headings

You can create headings by prefixing with a # (hash mark).

Heading 1

Syntex: 
    # Heading 1
        or
    =====

Heading 2

Syntex:
    ## Heading 2
        or
    ----

Heading 3

Syntex:
    ### Heading 3

Heading 4

Syntex:
    #### Heading 4

Heading 5

Syntex:
    ##### Heading 5

Heading 6

Emphasis

Bold

You can make any text bold by adding double asterisks (*) or double underscores(_).

Syntex:

    **Bold**

    __Bold__

Italic

You can make any text italic by adding asterisk (*) or underscore(_).

Syntex:

    *Italic*
    _Italic_

Bold and Italic

Even you can combine both them.

Syntex:
    You **can** combine them_

Strikethrough

Markdown supports strikethrough by wrapping text in ~~:

Syntex:
    ~~This text is strikethrough.~~
