Markdown

Thank you for choosing After Dark.

Markdown test post

This post is to see what markdown will result in on the webpage Markdown syntax

H1

H2

H3

H4

H5
H6

Alternatively, for H1 and H2, an underline-ish style:

Alt-H1

Alt-H2

Emphasis, aka italics, with asterisks or underscores.

Strong emphasis, aka bold, with asterisks or underscores.

Combined emphasis with asterisks and underscores.

Strikethrough uses two tildes. Scratch this.

  1. First ordered list item
  2. Another item
  • Unordered sub-list.
  1. Actual numbers don’t matter, just that it’s a number

  2. Ordered sub-list

  3. And another item.

    You can have properly indented paragraphs within list items. Notice the blank line above, and the leading spaces (at least one, but we’ll use three here to also align the raw Markdown).

    To have a line break without a paragraph, you will need to use two trailing spaces.
    Note that this line is separate, but within the same paragraph.
    (This is contrary to the typical GFM line break behaviour, where trailing spaces are not required.)

  • Unordered list can use asterisks
  • Or minuses
  • Or pluses

I’m an inline-style link

I’m an inline-style link with title

I’m a reference-style link

I’m a relative reference to a repository file

You can use numbers for reference-style link definitions

Or leave it empty and use the link text itself.

URLs and URLs in angle brackets will automatically get turned into links. http://www.example.com or http://www.example.com and sometimes example.com (but not on Github, for example).

Some text to show that the reference links can follow later.

Here’s our logo (hover to see the title text):

Inline-style: alt text

Reference-style: alt text

Inline code has back-ticks around it.

var s = "JavaScript syntax highlighting";
alert(s);
s = "Python syntax highlighting"
print s
No language indicated, so no syntax highlighting. 
But let's throw in a <b>tag</b>.

A code with hugo shortcode:

var s = "JavaScript syntax highlighting";
alert(s);
export FOO="Python syntax highlighting"
print s
s = "Python syntax highlighting"
print s
#!/usr/bin/python3

from engine import RunForrestRun

"""Test code for syntax highlighting!"""

class Foo:
 def __init__(self, var):
  self.var = var
  self.run()

 def run(self):
  RunForrestRun()  # run along!
See https://gohugo.io/content-management/syntax-highlighting/#list-of-chroma-highlighting-languages for supported languages

Colons can be used to align columns.

Tables Are Cool
col 3 is right-aligned $1600
col 2 is centered $12
zebra stripes are neat $1

There must be at least 3 dashes separating each header cell. The outer pipes (|) are optional, and you don’t need to make the raw Markdown line up prettily. You can also use inline Markdown.

Markdown Less Pretty
Still renders nicely
1 2 3

Blockquotes are very handy in email to emulate reply text. This line is part of the same quote.

Quote break.

This is a very long line that will still be quoted properly when it wraps. Oh boy let’s keep writing to make sure this is long enough to actually wrap for everyone. Oh, you can put Markdown into a blockquote.

Definition list
Is something people use sometimes.
Markdown in HTML
Does *not* work **very** well. Use HTML tags.

Three or more…


Hyphens


Asterisks


Underscores

and some text with a footnote.1


  1. the footnote text ↩︎
