h1 header

Paragraphs are separated by a blank line.

2nd paragraph. Italic, bold, and monospace. Itemized lists look like:

• this one
• that one
• the other one

Note that --- not considering the asterisk --- the actual text content starts at 4-columns in.

Block quotes are written like so.

They can span multiple paragraphs, if you like.

Use 2 dashes for and em dash or ranges (ex., “it’s all in chapters 12—14”). Unicode is supported. ☺

h2 header

Here’s a numbered list:

1. first item
2. second item
3. third item

Here’s a code sample:

Let me re-iterate …

for i in 1 .. 10 { do-something(i) }

You can also do delimited blocks: Use three backticks ``` and the name the language, such as javascript, bash, python, etc…

Javascript

define foobar() {
    print "Welcome to flavor country!";
}

Python

import time
# Quick, count to ten!
for i in range(10):
    # (but not *too* quick)
    time.sleep(0.5)
    print i

h3 header

Now a nested list:

1. First, get these ingredients:

   • carrots
   • celery
   • lentils

2. Boil some water.

3. Dump everything in the pot and follow this recipe:

   • simmer for 20 min
   • Remove from heat
   • Let cool for 10 min
   • Enjoy

   Add salt and pepper to taste.

Here’s a link to a website and to a section heading in the current doc. Here’s a footnote ¹.

Tables can look like this:

(The above is the caption for the table.) In MDX use <div class="whatever style you want">Caption</div>

You can also do multi-line tables with <br />:

A horizontal rule with ***.

Images can be specified like so:

![example image](./images/image-name.png "A datacenter image")

And note that you can backslash-escape any punctuation characters which you wish to be displayed literally, ex.: `foo`, *bar*, etc.
