                <!--- HEADING --->
# Header 1 #
## Header 2 ##
### Header 3 ###             (Hashes on right are optional)
#### Header 4 ####
##### Header 5 #####

## Markdown plus h2 with a custom ID ##         {#id-goes-here}
[Link back to H2](#id-goes-here)

                <!--- CONTENT -->

This is a paragraph, which is text surrounded by whitespace. Paragraphs can be on one 
line (or many), and can drone on for hours.  

                <!--- CONTENT FORMATTING --->

Now some inline markup like _italics_,  **bold**, and `code()`. Note that underscores in 
words are ignored in Markdown Extra.

                <!--- LINKS --->

Here is a Markdown link to [Warped](http://warpedvisions.org), and a literal . 
Now some SimpleLinks, like one to [google] (automagically links to are-you-
feeling-lucky), a [wiki: test] link to a Wikipedia page, and a link to 
[foldoc: CPU]s at foldoc.  

                <!--- IMAGES --->

![picture alt](/images/photo.jpeg "Title is optional")     

                <!--- BLOCKQUOTES -->

> Blockquotes are like quoted text in email replies
>> And, they can be nested

                <!--- LISTS --->

* Bullet lists are easy too

- Another one

+ Another one

1. A numbered list
2. Which is numbered
3. With periods and a space


                <!--- CODE FORMAT --->

And now some code:

    // Code is just text indented a bit
    which(is_easy) to_remember();

~~~

// Markdown extra adds un-indented code blocks too

if (this_is_more_code == true && !indented) {
    // tild wrapped code blocks, also not indented
}

~~~

Text with  
two trailing spaces  
(on the right)  
can be used  
for things like poems  

### Horizontal rules

* * * *
****
--------------------------


<div class="custom-class" markdown="1">
This is a div wrapping some Markdown plus.  Without the DIV attribute, it ignores the 
block. 
</div>

                <!--- TABLES --->
## Markdown plus tables ##

| Header | Header | Right  |
| ------ | ------ | -----: |
|  Cell  |  Cell  |   $10  |
|  Cell  |  Cell  |   $20  |

* Outer pipes on tables are optional
* Colon used for alignment (right versus left)

                <!--- DEFINATION LISTS --->

## Markdown plus definition lists ##

Bottled water
: $ 1.25
: $ 1.55 (Large)

Milk
Pop
: $ 1.75

* Multiple definitions and terms are possible
* Definitions can include multiple paragraphs too

                <!--- ABREVIATIONS --->

*[ABBR]: Markdown plus abbreviations (produces an <abbr> tag)

You can make nested lists by writing a space before the * .

E.g.:

* Level 1
 * Level 2

becomes

• Level 1
  • Level 2

How different is this from Github-flavored markdown?
