It can’t cover every edge case, so if you need more information about any of these elements, refer to the reference guides for basic syntax and extended syntax. These are the elements outlined in John Gruber’s original design document. These are just the most basic things you can do, and they are all standard Markdown. GitHub Flavoured Markdown is the same with a few extensions. The standard Markdown. Markdown is a standard developed by John Gruber.

• Introduction

Markdown's syntax is intended for one purpose: to be used as a format for writing for the web. Markdown is not a replacement for HTML, or even close to it. Its syntax is very small, corresponding only to a very small subset of HTML tags. The idea is not to create a syntax that makes it easier to insert HTML tags. Just about everything you’ll need to style in the theme: headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, tables, code blocks, and more.
