Gatsby Markdown Blog Starter

Big Test

NOTE: This "post" is based on Markdown Cheatsheet and is meant to test styling of Markdown generated documents.

This is intended as a quick reference and showcase. For more complete info, see John Gruber's original spec and the Github-flavored Markdown info page.

This cheatsheet is specifically Markdown Here's version of Github-flavored Markdown. This differs slightly in styling and syntax from what Github uses, so what you see below might vary a little from what you get in a Markdown Here email, but it should be pretty close.

You can play around with Markdown on our live demo page.

(If you're not a Markdown Here user, check out the Markdown Cheatsheet that is not specific to MDH. But, really, you should also use Markdown Here, because it's awesome. http://markdown-here.com)

Lists

Unordered

  • Create a list by starting a line with +, -, or *
  • Sub-lists are made by indenting 2 spaces:

    • Marker character change forces new list start:
    • Ac tristique libero volutpat at
    • Facilisis in pretium nisl aliquet
    • Nulla volutpat aliquam velit
  • Very easy!

Ordered

  1. Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet
  2. Consectetur adipiscing elit
  3. Integer molestie lorem at massa
  4. You can use sequential numbers...
  5. ...or keep all the numbers as 1.

Start numbering with offset:

  1. foo
  2. bar

Code

Inline code

Indented code

// Some comments
