Thanks for the cheatsheet.
One more important point for someone who is not aware: for markdown to work, the file name has to have .md extension.

Thank you for this!! Struggled with it for a bit to figure out why my markdowns weren't taking.

Thank you, this was helpful.

Thanks for THIS very useful suggestion

You have to underline your headings-to-be with "=" (h1) and with "-" (h2). Don't know about h3 and the others yet.

Thanks! I've forked this and fixed the unformatted heading by adding a space after the '#' symbol.

Thanks it was very hepful

Any idea how to create a copy to clipboard button on fenced code blocks?
