STEP BY STEP TUTORIAL ON HOW TO USE MARK DOWN.

So I noticed some newbies are finding it difficult to mark a post with markdown. Having seen this in Hive account@euronation's whatsapp group from a member trying to improve his hyperlink.

I thought maybe this post will be of help to those who still don't know how to use markdowns.

First and foremost what is markdown? Markdowns are lightweight texts format e.g. (*,#,>)etc that allows you make rich content, documents etc. Makes reading easy and comprehensible.

Now starting with the first markdown. The simple word I would love to use would be : There is beauty in simplicity.

For Header.

If you want to make it as a letter heading use this # There is beauty in simplicity. P.s you can add more harshtag if you need to reduce.
Eg ### There is beauty in simplicity.

For Sourcing.

Adding proper source or creating a hyperlink...
Go to the desired website take a picture or quote and simply put [source](URL of source).
Eg Source

For italics.

All you need is * at both ends.
E.g. There is beauty in simplicity.

For bold letters.

Two of this ** at both ends.
E.g. There is beauty in simplicity

To quote.

Use this >

There is beauty in simplicity.

To strike through

Use This ~~ at both end of the sentence.

E.g. There is beauty in simplicity.

Lastly how to differentiate using a table.

All you need is -hyphen and pipe |

E.g. THERE IS BEAUTY	IN SIMPLICITY.
there is beauty	in simplicity
Beauty is	love
