Formatting and styling text

You can format the text within your Experiences using Markdown - a simple code for styling your text.

Markdown styling options

Text effects

Bold: **text**
Italic: *text* or _text_
Strikethrough: ~~text~~
Code word: `text`

Paragraph formatting

Horizontal rule (line): *** (three asterisks) or ___ (three underscores) on its own line.

Note: This generates an <hr> tag and remember you can use line breaks above and below for better spacing.

Headers

Header 1 (largest font size): # text
Header 2 (second largest font size): ## text
...
Header 6 (smallest font size): ###### text

Lists

Bulleted list: - text
Numbered list: 1. text
Second indent: leave a space before the dash or number

Note: Please ensure there is a return (line break) above the list start, and that there is space between the dash or number and text.

Alignment

Left aligned: nothing -- this is the default
Right aligned: => text
Center aligned: =| text

Markdown was created in 2004 to provide greater readability and flexibility for text formatting. Many other products, such as Github, Slack, and Trello use a version of it too!
