In this repository 📖, you’ll learn how to write with Markdown 📖, a simple and widely used markup language for formatting text. Here, you’ll start building a static webpage for your customized portfolio.
What is Markdown?
Markdown is a lightweight syntax for writing all types of communication on GitHub, as well as many other places on the web. You can format words as bold or italic, add images, and create lists. Mostly, Markdown is just regular text combined with a few non-alphabetic symbols, such as # or *. You can use Markdown with the formatting toolbar in issues 📖 and pull requests 📖, or you can learn the syntax and type it yourself.
You can use Markdown most places around GitHub:
Comments in issues and pull requests (like this one!)
A task list creates checkboxes that can be checked off by people with access 📖 in a repository. They're very useful for tracking issues and pull requests.
If you include a task list in the first comment of an issue or pull request, you'll see a progress indicator in your issue list.
Watch out! The syntax for task lists is very specific. Be sure to include the spaces where required, or else they won't render properly.
Example markup
- [x] Additional markup is supported, including @mentions, #referencess, [links](url), **emphasis**, and <del>HTML tags</del>.
- [x] List syntax is required.
- You can nest lists below, too!
- [x] This item is completed.
- [ ] This item is not complete.
