# SCAR-iT Style Guidelines **Markdown Style Guide** Markdown is a lightweight markup language that you can use to add formatting elements to plaintext text documents. Here's a simple guide: - Headers: Use # for headers. The number of # indicates the level of the header. For example, # Header 1, ## Header 2, ### Header 3. - Emphasis: Use * for emphasis. For example, *italic* or **bold**. - Lists: Use - for unordered lists and numbers for ordered lists. For example: - Item 1 - Item 2 or 1. Item 1 2. Item 2 - Links: Use [link text](url) to create a hyperlink. For example, [Bing](https://www.bing.com). - Images: Use ![alt text](url) to insert an image. For example, ![Bing Logo](https://www.bing.com/logo.png). - Code: Use backticks (`) to denote code. Use single backticks for inline code and triple backticks for blocks of code. - `{InLine Code}` - Blocks of Code ```JavaScript var foo = bar: ``` - Tables: Use | to create tables. For example: | Column 1 | Column 2 | | -------- | -------- | | Cell 1 | Cell 2 | - Blockquotes: Use > for blockquotes. For example, > This is a quote. - Horizontal Rule: Use --- or *** to create a horizontal rule. Example: --- - Strikethrough: Use ~~ for strikethrough. For example, ~~strikethrough~~. Remember, the goal of using Markdown is to make documents more readable. Keep it simple and consistent.
