Sample CommonMark file
======================

Free sample from 99helpers.com/file-types/md. This file uses only core
CommonMark syntax (spec version 0.31.2), with no extensions, so every
CommonMark-compliant renderer should produce the same HTML from it.

Setext headings
---------------

The two headings above are "setext" headings, underlined with `=` and
`-`. The ATX style below uses `#` signs.

## Emphasis and code

*Emphasis* or _emphasis_, **strong** or __strong__, ***both***, and
`inline code` with a backtick inside: `` a ` b ``.

## Line breaks

End a line with two spaces  
or a backslash\
for a hard line break. A plain line break
is treated as a space.

## Links and images

An inline link: [CommonMark](https://commonmark.org "CommonMark home").
A reference link: [the spec][spec]. An autolink: <https://spec.commonmark.org>.
An email autolink: <ada@example.com>.

[spec]: https://spec.commonmark.org/0.31.2/

## Lists

3. An ordered list can start at any number,
9. but only the first number counts:
1. these items still show as 4 and 5.

* A tight list (no blank lines between items)
* renders without paragraphs inside the items.

- A loose list

- has blank lines between items, so each item becomes a paragraph.

## Code blocks

    An indented code block: four spaces in front of each line.
    No language can be given.

~~~
A fenced code block can use tildes as well as backticks.
~~~

## Block quote and rule

> A quotation
>
> > with a nested quotation.

***

## Entities and escapes

&copy; &amp; &#8364; &#x1F600; and a literal \*asterisk\*.
