It's very easy to make some words **bold** and other words *italic* with Markdown. You can even [link to Google!](http://google.com)
1. One
2. Two
3. Three
Sometimes you want bullet points:
* Start a line with a star
* Profit!
Alternatively,
- Dashes work just as well
- And if you have sub points, put two spaces before the dash or star:
- Like this
- And this
If you want to embed images, this is how you do it:

Sometimes it's useful to have different levels of headings to structure your documents. Start lines with a `#` to create headings. Multiple `##` in a row denote smaller heading sizes.
### This is a third-tier heading
You can use one `#` all the way up to `######` six for different heading sizes.
If you'd like to quote someone, use the > character before the line:
> Coffee. The finest organic suspension ever devised... I beat the Borg with it.
> - Captain Janeway
There are many different ways to style code with GitHub's markdown. If you have inline code blocks, wrap them in backticks: `var example = true`. If you've got a longer block of code, you can indent with four spaces:
if (isAwesome){
return true
}
GitHub also supports something called code fencing, which allows for multiple lines without indentation:
```
if (isAwesome){
return true
}
```
And if you'd like to use syntax highlighting, include the language:
```javascript
if (isAwesome){
return true
}
```
GitHub supports many extras in Markdown that help you reference and link to people. If you ever want to direct a comment at someone, you can prefix their name with an @ symbol: Hey @kneath — love your sweater!
But I have to admit, tasks lists are my favorite:
- [x] This is a complete item
- [ ] This is an incomplete item
And, of course emoji! :sparkles: :camel: :boom:
