< h2 id = "heading-level-2" > Heading level 2< / h2 >
< p > Since your title (defined in the front matter) is your heading level 1, you should never use another heading level 1 in your body.< / p >
< h3 id = "heading-level-3" > Heading level 3< / h3 >
< p > The number of pound signs determines the heading level.< / p >
< h4 id = "heading-level-4" > Heading level 4< / h4 >
< p > It's also important not to skip heading levels. Don't jump from a 2 to a 4 or similar.< / p >
< h5 id = "heading-level-5" > Heading level 5< / h5 >
< p > You can use up to level 6!< / p >
< h6 id = "heres-level-6" > Here's level 6< / h6 >
< p > It's just unnecessary.< / p >
< h2 id = "paragraphs" > Paragraphs< / h2 >
< p > You'll notice that I am putting blank lines between headings and plain text. This is necessary, or they won't render correctly.< / p >
< p > It's also important to put a blank line in between each paragraph. See what happens without it:
This is supposed to be a new paragraph, but it isn't.< / p >
< h3 id = "inline-styles" > Inline styles< / h3 >
< p > We can, of course, create < strong > bold< / strong > and < em > italicized< / em > text, or < code > inline monospace text< / code > .< / p >
< p > We can also create links, like this < a href = "/" > link to the home page< / a > .< / p >
< h2 id = "horizontal-lines" > Horizontal lines< / h2 >
< p > Sometimes you want to insert a visual break in your text that isn't just a new paragraph. You can use three dashes to create a horizontal line:< / p >
< hr >
< p > This text will be below the line.< / p >
< h2 id = "lists" > Lists< / h2 >
< h3 id = "unordered-lists" > Unordered lists< / h3 >
< p > Unordered lists can be created with dashes or asterisks. With dashes:< / p >
< ul >
< li > this is an item< / li >
< li > this is another item< / li >
< / ul >
< p > With asterisks:< / p >
< ul >
< li > this is an item< / li >
< li > this is another item< / li >
< / ul >
< h3 id = "ordered-lists" > Ordered lists< / h3 >
< p > Ordered (numbered) lists can be created with (surprise!) numbers. You can write numbers as you would normally, < em > or< / em > you can just write the number 1 over and over, like so:< / p >
< ol >
< li > this is item 1< / li >
< li > despite being written with a 1, this is item 2< / li >
< / ol >
< p > This allows you to insert more information into lists in the future without having to renumber every following item.< / p >
< h3 id = "nested-lists" > Nested lists< / h3 >
< p > Both unordered and ordered lists can be nested. Just tab the nested section inwards:< / p >
< ul >
< li > this is an item
< ul >
< li > this is nested below it< / li >
< li > this is also nested< / li >
< / ul >
< / li >
< li > this is another item< / li >
< / ul >
< p > You can mix unordered and ordered lists when you nest.< / p >
< h2 id = "quotes" > Quotes< / h2 >
< p > You can always just use quotation marks, of course, but if you are quoting a larger chunk of text it can be nice to use a blockquote.< / p >
< p > You format a blockquote by starting the line with a caret:< / p >
< blockquote >
< p > This is a quote, and it will render differently than a paragraph.< / p >
< / blockquote >
< p > If you want a quote to have multiple separate paragraphs, and still contiguously display as one quote, make sure to put a caret on the empty line between the paragraphs.< / p >
< blockquote >
< p > This is a multi-paragraph quote.< / p >
< p > Here's the second paragraph.< / p >
< ul >
< li > Blockquotes can also have lists< / li >
< li > They still have the caret at the front< / li >
< / ul >
< / blockquote >
< h2 id = "monospace" > Monospace< / h2 >
< p > You can write single words < code > in monospace< / code > , or create code blocks:< / p >
< pre > < code > 3 backticks surround code blocks
< / code > < / pre >
< p > Code blocks can have syntax highlighting:< / p >
< pre class = "language-html" > < code class = "language-html" > < span class = "token tag" > < span class = "token tag" > < span class = "token punctuation" > < < / span > h1< / span > < span class = "token punctuation" > >< / span > < / span > Hello, world< span class = "token tag" > < span class = "token tag" > < span class = "token punctuation" > < /< / span > h1< / span > < span class = "token punctuation" > >< / span > < / span > < / code > < / pre >
< h2 id = "tables" > Tables< / h2 >
< p > Tables in Markdown are kind of annoying to format. You use the pipe (< code > |< / code > ) character as well as dashes.< / p >
< pre > < code > | Header 1 | Header 2 |
|---|---|
| data 1a | data 1b |
| data 2a | data 2b |
| data 3a | data 3b |
< / code > < / pre >
< p > When I remove the monospace block, you can see how this formats:< / p >
< table >
< thead >
< tr >
< th > Header 1< / th >
< th > Header 2< / th >
< / tr >
< / thead >
< tbody >
< tr >
< td > data 1a< / td >
< td > data 1b< / td >
< / tr >
< tr >
< td > data 2a< / td >
< td > data 2b< / td >
< / tr >
< tr >
< td > data 3a< / td >
< td > data 3b< / td >
< / tr >
< / tbody >
< / table >
< / heading-anchors >
< / main >
< footer >
< ul >
< li >
< a href = "/colophon" title = "colophon" aria-label = "colophon" >

< a href = "/" title = "go home" aria-label = "go home | hello hello from Lee Cattarin in 2026" >
