Getting started | applying markdown in github

Markdown is a lightweight and easy-to-use syntax for styling all forms of writing on the GitHub platform.

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 * .

You can use Markdown most places around GitHub:
