A post must be neatly formatted in order to be easy to read. There are different things that need to follow some specific rules. If someone writes a blog post using Markdown, then it is easier to read for a person who isn't as familiar with the formatting.

Why use MARKDOWN SYNTAX ?

MARKDOWN SYNTAX is easier to write and read because it is less time-consuming. It does not take up much space on the computer either.

Why it is important to design your post with MARKDOWN SYNTAX?

Even though it is called a "language", it is not really a language since it only has a small syntax. It is best for making your blog more easily read and fun to look at as well. A lot of people like adding in the extra features that are not available with HTML even though Markdown can be written into these codes as well.

What are all the symbols you can add?

There are different symbols that you can include when writing Markdown such as superscripts, subscripts, strikethroughs, and tables. These do not have to be used in your writing because everyone does not use them, but they can be used to make your post easier to read and understand.

This post will list most of the main rule of formatting to help you quickly format your word document and Kindle books. If you have any other tips or tricks, please let me know in the comments section. The whole Markdown Cheatsheet is listed below for easy viewing.

Headers

# H1
## H2
### H3
#### H4
##### H5
###### H6

Alternatively, you could use an underline for H1 and H2:

Alternative-H1
======

Alternative-H2
------

H1

H2

H3

H4

H5

H6

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

Alternative-H1

Alternative-H2

Emphasis

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.~~

Lists

(Leading and trailing spaces are indicated with dots in this example: ⋅)

1. Item no 1
2. Item no 2
⋅⋅* Unordered sub-list. 
1. type 1
⋅⋅1. Ordered sub-list
4. Item no 3

⋅⋅⋅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

1. Item no 1
2. Item no 2

• Unordered sub-list.

1. type 1

2. Ordered sub-list

3. Item no 3

Within list items, you can have correctly indented paragraphs. The blank line above, as well as the leading spaces (at least one, but we'll use three here to also align the raw Markdown), should be noted.

You'll need to use two trailing spaces to create a line break without a paragraph.
This line is distinct from the rest of the paragraph, though it is within the same paragraph.
(This is in contrast to the standard GFM line break behaviour, which does not require trailing spaces.)

• Unordered list can use asterisks

• Or minuses

• Or pluses

Links

There are two ways to create links.

[This is an inline-style link](https://www.google.com)

[This is an inline-style link with title](https://www.google.com "Google's Homepage")

[This is an reference-style link][Arbitrary case-insensitive reference text]


[For reference-style link definitions, numbers can be used.][1]

Or leave it empty and use the [link text itself].

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

[arbitrary case-insensitive reference text]: https://www.google.com
[1]: http://steemit.com
[link text itself]: http://www.facebook.com

Images

Inline-style:

Code and Syntax Highlighting

Code blocks are part of the Markdown spec, but syntax highlighting isn't. However, steemit support syntax highlighting.

Inline `code` has `back-ticks around` it.

Inline code has back-ticks around it.

Blocks of code are either fenced by lines with three back-ticks ```, or are indented with four spaces.

```javascript
var s = "this is a variable for javascript";
alert(s);

s = "this is a variable for Python"
print s

Tables

Tables aren't part of the core Markdown spec, but they are part steemit. They are an easy way of adding tables.

Colons can be used to align columns.

| No            | day           | Year  |
| ------------- |:-------------:| -----:|
| 1             | 21            |1993   |
| 2             | 28            | 1999   |
| 3             | empty         |  2021 |

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.

book| quatity | usd
--- | --- | ---
*Harry potter* | `One` | **10$**
1 | 2 | 3

No	day	Year
1	21	1993
2	28	1999
3	empty	2021

Colons can be used to align columns.

book	quatity	usd
Harry potter	One	10$
1	2	3

Blockquotes

> A blockquote can be used as a reply text
> This line is part of the same quote.

Quote break.

> TWhen it wraps, this is a very long line that will still be quoted correctly. Let's keep writing until we have enough material to wrap things up for everyone. you can *put* **Markdown** into a blockquote.

When it wraps, this is a very long line that will still be quoted correctly. Let's keep writing until we have enough material to wrap things up for everyone. you can put Markdown into a blockquote.

Inline HTML

we can use raw HTML in your Markdown,

<dl>
  <dt>Now its time</dt>
  <dd>Lets post.</dd>

  <dt>Markdown in HTML</dt>
  <dd>this *is* a **very** bad habit. Use HTML <em>tags</em>.</dd>
</dl>

Now its time

Lets post.

Markdown in HTML

this is a very bad habit. Use HTML tags.

Line Breaks

Here's a line for us to start with.

This line is separated from the one above by two newlines, so it will be a *separate paragraph*.

This line is also a separate paragraph, but...
This line is only separated by a single newline, so it's a separate line in the *same paragraph*.

This line is separated from the one above by two newlines, so it will be a separate paragraph.

This line is also begins a separate paragraph, but...
