Inline expressions: surround the expression with `$`. ```md $\sum_{n=1}^{10} n^2$ ``` $\sum_{n=1}^{10} n^2$ Block expressions: surround the expression with `$$`. ```md $$\sum_{n=1}^{10} n^2$$ ``` $$\sum_{n=1}^{10} n^2$$Syntax highlighting in code blocks
Specify the language right after the code block's opening: ```ruby def index puts "hello world" end ``` ```csharp private void index(){ MessageBox.Show("hello world"); } ``` Refer [Syntax highlighting in markdown] and [linguist supported language syntax list] for recognized languages and their aliases.To do lists
Use `[ ]` after the bullet point or numbered list character to switch them for an empty ballot box, and `[x]` for a checked one. 1. [ ] 1 1. [ ] 2 - [x] a - [x] Point 3They are extensions that the most famous flavours introduced or adopted, each with small but annoying differences.

## Troubleshooting
### Escape the backtick character
Include a non-code formatted backtick by escaping it normally (with a `\`).
Render it in an inline code block using double backticks instead of single backticks.
Alternatively, use a code block. This will wrap everything in a `` HTML tag.
To do this, either indent 4 spaces to start a code block, or use fenced code blocks if supported. ### Render mermaid.js graphs in VS Code's Markdown preview Install and enable [`bierner.markdown-mermaid`][bierner.markdown-mermaid]'s extension. ## Further readings - Official [documentation] - [Extended syntax] - [Linguist supported language syntax list] - [Github's alert formatting][github formatting alerts] - [Live editor] - [Mermaid.js] - [MyST] extension for technical, scientific communication and publication ### Sources - [Basic syntax] - [Code blocks] - [Escaping backticks] - [Escaping backtick in Markdown] - [The magical Markdown I bet you don't know] - [slaise/High-level-Markdown] - [Syntax highlighting in Markdown] - [Writing on GitHub] - [GitLab Flavored Markdown] [mermaid.js]: mermaid.js.md [basic syntax]: https://www.markdownguide.org/basic-syntax [code blocks]: https://docs.readme.com/rdmd/docs/code-blocks [documentation]: https://docs.readme.com/rdmd/docs [extended syntax]: https://www.markdownguide.org/extended-syntax/ [babelmark]: https://babelmark.github.io/ [bierner.markdown-mermaid]: https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=bierner.markdown-mermaid [escaping backtick in markdown]: https://www.growingwiththeweb.com/2015/06/escaping-backtick-in-markdown.html [escaping backticks]: https://www.markdownguide.org/basic-syntax/#escaping-backticks [github formatting alerts]: https://docs.github.com/en/get-started/writing-on-github/getting-started-with-writing-and-formatting-on-github/basic-writing-and-formatting-syntax#alerts [GitLab Flavored Markdown alerts]: https://docs.gitlab.com/user/markdown/#alerts [GitLab Flavored Markdown]: https://docs.gitlab.com/user/markdown/ [linguist supported language syntax list]: https://github.com/github/linguist/blob/master/lib/linguist/languages.yml [live editor]: https://mermaid.live/edit [myst]: https://mystmd.org/ [slaise/high-level-markdown]: https://github.com/slaise/High-level-Markdown [syntax highlighting in markdown]: https://support.codebasehq.com/articles/tips-tricks/syntax-highlighting-in-markdown [the magical markdown i bet you don't know]: https://medium.com/codex/the-magical-markdown-i-bet-you-dont-know-b51f8c049773 [Writing on GitHub]: https://docs.github.com/en/get-started/writing-on-github
