Links

I’m an inline-style link

I’m an inline-style link with title

I’m a reference-style link

I’m a relative reference to a repository file

You can use numbers for reference-style link definitions

Or leave it empty and use the link text itself.

URLs and URLs in angle brackets will automatically get turned into links. http://www.example.com or http://www.example.com and sometimes example.com (but not on Github, for example).

Some text to show that the reference links can follow later.

Images

Here’s our logo (hover to see the title text):

Inline-style:

Reference-style:

Like links, Images also have a footnote style syntax

With a reference later in the document defining the URL location:

Footnotes

Footnote 1 link².

Footnote 2 link³.

Inline footnote^[Text of inline footnote] definition.

Duplicated footnote reference³.

Tables

Colons can be used to align columns.

There must be at least 3 dashes separating each header cell. The outer pipes (|) are optional, and you don’t need to make the raw Markdown line up prettily. You can also use inline Markdown.
