This Post is dedicated to all those new Users who recently joined Steemit and have no idea how to utilize the Raw Markdown Editor in order to edit Posts or Comments
When you decide to write out a post, you'll notice that there 2 options on the top right corner that enables you to switch between the built-in Editor or Raw Editor!
The Built-in Editor Is Simple and Easy to Use! If you're really desperate to start publishing content on Steemit this is for you! You won't need much for an ''Introduceyourself'' Post but as you begin to write more content you'll definitely want to familiarize yourself with Markdown & HTML Coding
I can understand that many of you, do not like the slightest idea of learning to code. You should at least give it a try! as there is possibility of getting rewarded by the Community! If your post has interesting Content and appealing layout it is bound to get more upvotes from the Steemit Community, so it pays to learn how to edit or format your Post & Comments
The Raw Editor allows you to edit content through Markdown and HTML Codes. Both of them are consider to be Mark Up Language
Markup languages are designed for the processing, definition and presentation of text. The language specifies code for formatting, both the layout and style, within a text file. The code used to specify the formatting are called tags. HTMLis a an example of a widely known and used markup language

Example
2 Columns
You can simply copy paste the code below into your Raw Editor and change my Text!
<div class=pull-left>
Write you first Column Text right here followed by closing Markdown Code
</div>
<div class=pull-right>
Now write the Text of your 2nd Column, keep in mind that some Markdown Styling won't Work
</div>

When posting, you choose to use normal Editor (includes bold, italic and hyperlink) or use the ''Raw Markdown'' Editor, just follow some of my guides on Markdown. It's quite simple, give it a go!

You can use backticks ` to display code - either one at the beginning and one at the end of a string, or you can create a code text box by putting three backticks on a line above the code and three below. In this case, I'll escape the backticks with backslashes \ to show an example:
```
Here goes your code
```
On a US QWERTY keyboard, the backtick or grave accent is at the top left. The author of this post didn't use backticks, which is why the first character in each line of table code was interpreted as a quote character. The actual table code should look like this:
