This is my attempt to capture some of the things I (relatively) frequently do in Markdown. It is by no means definitive, but I always seem to forget these ones.
Inline-style links use parentheses immediately after the link text. For example:
This is an [example link](http://example.com/).Output: This is an example link.
Optionally, you may include a title attribute in the parentheses:
This is an [example link](http://example.com/ "With a Title").Output: This is an example link.
You can do reference links too!

###Images This is image syntax, note the leading "bang"
###Block Quotes
Block quotes are designated with a right-facing chevron or greater-than symbol, e.g. '>'.
> This paragraph is shown as

a block quote. Notice the
quick brown fox...
Slack uses a triple chevron to block quote multiple lines.
