MARKDOWN
Markdown is one kind of simple coding used to format the writing while blogging. In the web, we can make our text bold, italic, center, header etc easily with simple markdown coding. This is very lightweight and easy writing style convention that allows you to format all types of text on the GitHub platform using just a few symbols. As Steemit is based on GitHub, text formatting can be easily done here using Markdown. Markdown won't work on all webs. In this tutorial series, in next five part, I shall share about 30 markdown and html style which you can use to format your text while writing in steemit.
AN EXAMPLE OF MARKDOWN
Suppose you write **TRON FAN CLUB** i.e. put two star (** ) in front and back. It will look like TRON FAN CLUB.
This is how Markdown styling works and we need it to make our writing attractive to our readers. Let's learn one by one.
STYLE 01: HEADER OR TITLE
There are total 6 sizes for headers. H1 is the highest and H6 is the lowest. H4 is normally the normal size of text. So, H5 and H6 will show tiny size. To make header we need to type # (1-6) and space after that to achieve the Style.
We should type
# Tron Fan Club
## Tron Fan Club
### Tron Fan Club
#### Tron Fan Club
##### Tron Fan Club
###### Tron Fan Club
