Markdown syntax is a way to style text on the web. Markdown allows you to format words as bold or italic, and creating lists.Mostly, Markdown is just regular text with a few non-alphabetic characters thrown in, like # or *.
Emphasis
*This text will be bold* _This will be italic_ +This will be underscored+
Lists
Unordered
* Item 1 * Item 2 * Item 3
Ordered
1. Item 1 2. Item 2 3. Item 3
Blockquotes
Blockquotes can start with a single or triple greater symbol:
Albert Einstein: >>> I would teach peace rather than war. >>> I would inculcate love rather than hate.

Backslash Escapes
Markdown allows you to use backslash escapes to generate literal characters which would otherwise have special meaning in Markdown’s formatting syntax. If you want to display “+++ breaking news +++” you can write:
\+\+\+ breaking news \+\+\+
Markdown provides backslash escapes for the following characters:
\ backslash
* asterisk
+ plus – minus
` tick
_ underscore
# hash mark
{} curly braces
[] square brackets( ) parentheses
