Lists
1. First ordered list item 2. Second item * Unordered sub-list. Sub-paragraph within the list item. 1. Third item 8. First ordered sub-list item. 103. Fourth item
General guidelines:
The list item number does not matter. As shown in the example below, the formatting defines the lists.
List items can contain properly indented paragraphs, using white space.
U
nordered list can use: *
, -, or +.
Linebreaks
This is the first sentence. This line is separated from the one above by two newlines, so it will be a *separate paragraph*. This line is also a separate paragraph. This line is only separated by a single newline, so it's a separate line in the *same paragraph*.
Note
Trailing spaces can be used for line-breaks without creating a new paragraph. This behavior is contrary to the typical GFM line break behavior, where trailing spaces are not required.
