Extra Syntax

Footnotes

Footnotes work mostly like reference-style links. A footnote is made of two things: a marker in the text that will become a superscript number; a footnote definition that will be placed in a list of footnotes at the end of the document. A footnote looks like this:

That’s some text with a footnote.¹

Strikethrough

Wrap with 2 tilde characters:

Strikethrough

Fenced Code Blocks

Start with a line containing 3 or more backticks, and ends with the first line with the same number of backticks:

Fenced code blocks are like Stardard Markdown’s regular code
blocks, except that they’re not indented and instead rely on
a start and end fence lines to delimit the code block.

Tables

A simple table looks like this:

First Header	Second Header	Third Header
Content Cell	Content Cell	Content Cell
Content Cell	Content Cell	Content Cell

If you wish, you can add a leading and tailing pipe to each line of the table:

First Header	Second Header	Third Header
Content Cell	Content Cell	Content Cell
Content Cell	Content Cell	Content Cell

Specify alignement for each column by adding colons to separator lines:

First Header	Second Header	Third Header
Left	Center	Right
Left	Center	Right
