Create sophisticated formatting for your prose and code on GitHub with simple syntax.

Headings
To create a heading, add one to six # symbols before your heading text. The number of # you use will determine the hierarchy level and typeface size of the heading.

A first-level heading

A second-level heading

A third-level heading

Screenshot of rendered GitHub Markdown showing sample h1, h2, and h3 headers, which descend in type size and visual weight to indicate descending hierarchy level.

When you use two or more headings, GitHub automatically generates a table of contents that you can access by clicking within the file header. Each heading title is listed in the table of contents and you can click a title to navigate to the selected section.

Screenshot of the README file in the GitHub Docs open source repository with the drop-down menu for the table of contents exposed. The table of contents icon is outlined in dark orange.

Styling text
You can indicate emphasis with bold, italic, strikethrough, subscript, or superscript text in comment fields and .md files.

Style Syntax Keyboard shortcut Example Output
Bold ** ** or __ __ Command+B (Mac) or Ctrl+B (Windows/Linux) This is bold text This is bold text
Italic * * or _ _      Command+I (Mac) or Ctrl+I (Windows/Linux) This text is italicized This text is italicized
Strikethrough ~~ ~~ This was mistaken text This was mistaken text
Bold and nested italic ** ** and _ _ This text is extremely important This text is extremely important
All bold and italic *** *** All this text is important All this text is important
Subscript _{This is a subscript text} This is a subscript text
Superscript ^{This is a superscript text} This is a superscript text
Quoting text
You can quote text with a >.

Text that is not a quote

Text that is a quote
Quoted text is indented, with a different type color.

Screenshot of rendered GitHub Markdown showing sample quoted text. The quote is indented with a vertical line on the left, and its text is dark gray rather than black.

Tip: When viewing a conversation, you can automatically quote text in a comment by highlighting the text, then typing R. You can quote an entire comment by clicking , then Quote reply. For more information about keyboard shortcuts, see "Keyboard shortcuts."

Quoting code
You can call out code or a command within a sentence with single backticks. The text within the backticks will not be formatted. You can also press the Command+E (Mac) or Ctrl+E (Windows/Linux) keyboard shortcut to insert the backticks for a code block within a line of Markdown.

Use git status to list all new or modified files that haven't yet been committed.
Screenshot of rendered GitHub Markdown showing the appearance of characters surrounded by backticks. The words "git status" appear in a fixed-width typeface, highlighted in light gray.

To format code or text into its own distinct block, use triple backticks.

Some basic Git commands are:

git status
git add
git commit

Screenshot of rendered GitHub Markdown showing a code block. The words "git status," "git add," and "git commit" appear in a fixed-width typeface, highlighted in light gray.

For more information, see "Creating and highlighting code blocks."

If you are frequently editing code snippets and tables, you may benefit from enabling a fixed-width font in all comment fields on GitHub. For more information, see "About writing and formatting on GitHub."

Supported color models
In issues, pull requests, and discussions, you can call out colors within a sentence by using backticks. A supported color model within backticks will display a visualization of the color.

The background color is #ffffff for light mode and #000000 for dark mode.
Screenshot of rendered GitHub Markdown showing how HEX values within backticks create small circles of color. #ffffff shows a white circle, and #000000 shows a black circle.

Here are the currently supported color models.

Color Syntax Example Output
HEX #RRGGBB #0969DA Screenshot of rendered GitHub Markdown showing how HEX value #0969DA appears with a blue circle.
