Hello steemit.
It has been educative journey so far. Writing the achievements post have opened me up to stemmit. On the post, i am going to be talking on applying markdowns. I have read about them in peoples post and know there are a lot of them. I will only highlight a few.

what are markdowns

"Markdown is a lightweight markup language for creating formatted text using a plain-text editor. It is a language that is appealing to human readers in its source code form. Markdown is widely used in blogging, instant messaging, online forums, collaborative software, documentation pages, and readme files."

Generally the purpose behind markdown is to mark your post organized, easily readable and pleasing to the eye. It gives you post a more professional look especially when making use of your andriod phone. Lets look at some markdowns in steemit.

Headlines.

There are two ways to create you headlines using (#) sign or dash signs

heading a

heading b

heading c.

This is creating by #heading a, ##headingb, ###heading c respectively. Only give space between the (#) sign and your title. The more the ash sign, the smaller the title.

Texts.

you can justify texts, align them center, left, eight and even break them into cells. lets take this text.

TO BREAK THEM INTO TWO CELLS

The kidney functions like the cleaning engine of the body. The liver also have this function to but the kidney is Chief. What ever goes through our mouth pays a visit to our kidneys.

BLACKQUOTES.

These markdowns are you to highlight a person's quote, for example:

The key to success is failure
by Micheal Jordan

Now using mark down

The key to success is failure - Micheal Jordan

LINKS/ REFERENCES

Rather than having a long link that will make your post rough and unorganized, we make use of markdowns. For example, instead of
https://steemit.com/submit.html?category=hive-172186
Using markdown you can shorten the link
source
Or
This will be an inline link
When you need to refer to a person account, you easily apply @ before the person's username..

IMAGES.

Now markdown can be used on images as well. You can use them to align your image left or right or center .
