GitHub Flavored Markdown

Let's get the whole "linebreak" thing out of the way. The next paragraph contains two phrases separated by a single newline character:

Roses are red
Violets are blue

The next paragraph has the same phrases, but now they are separated by two spaces and a newline character:

Roses are red
Violets are blue

Oh, and one thing I cannot stand is the mangling of words with multiple underscores in them like perform_complicated_task or do_this_and_do_that_and_another_thing.

A bit of the GitHub spice

In addition to the changes in the previous section, certain references are auto-linked:

SHA: be6a8cc1c1ecfe9489fb51e4869af15a13fc2cd2
User@SHA ref: be6a8cc
User/Project@SHA: mojombo/god@be6a8cc
#Num: #1
User/#Num: #1
User/Project#Num: mojombo/god#1

These are dangerous goodies though, and we need to make sure email addresses don't get mangled:

My email addy is tom@github.com.

Math is hard, let's go shopping

In first grade I learned that 5 > 3 and 2 < 7. Maybe some arrows. 1 -> 2 -> 3. 9 <- 8 <- 7.

Triangles man! a^2 + b^2 = c^2

We all like making lists

The above header should be an H2 tag. Now, for a list of fruits:

Red Apples
Purple Grapes
Green Kiwifruits

Let's get crazy:

This is a list item with two paragraphs. Lorem ipsum dolor
sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit. Aliquam hendrerit
mi posuere lectus.

Vestibulum enim wisi, viverra nec, fringilla in, laoreet
vitae, risus. Donec sit amet nisl. Aliquam semper ipsum
sit amet velit.
2. Suspendisse id sem consectetuer libero luctus adipiscing.

What about some code in a list? That's insane, right?

In Ruby you can map like this:
```
['a', 'b'].map { |x| x.uppercase }
```
In Rails, you can do a shortcut:
```
['a', 'b'].map(&:uppercase)
```

Some people seem to like definition lists

Lower cost: The new version of this product costs significantly less than the previous one!
Easier to use: We've changed the product so that it's much easier to use!

I am a robot

Maybe you want to print robot to the console 1000 times. Why not?

def robot_invasion
  puts("robot " * 1000)
end

You see, that was formatted as code because it's been indented by four spaces.

How about we throw some angle braces and ampersands in there?

<div class="footer">
    &copy; 2004 Foo Corporation
</div>

Set in stone

Preformatted blocks are useful for ASCII art:

             ,-. 
    ,     ,-.   ,-. 
   / \   (   )-(   ) 
   \ |  ,.>-(   )-< 
    \|,' (   )-(   ) 
     Y ___`-'   `-' 
     |/__/   `-' 
     | 
     | 
     |    -hrr- 
  ___|_____________

Playing the blame game

If you need to blame someone, the best way to do so is by quoting them:

I, at any rate, am convinced that He does not throw dice.

Or perhaps someone a little less eloquent:

I wish you'd have given me this written question ahead of time so I
could plan for it... I'm sure something will pop into my head here in
the midst of this press conference, with all the pressure of trying to
come up with answer, but it hadn't yet...

I don't want to sound like
I have made no mistakes. I'm confident I have. I just haven't - you
just put me under the spot here, and maybe I'm not as quick on my feet
as I should be in coming up with one.

I want this in php!!!

Answer 2 · 2009-12-17T06:58:52.000Z

Easy enough. Here's the Ruby code that we use. It should be simple to port to PHP.

Answer 3 · 2010-01-21T13:59:48.000Z

Looks like the arrows/math example doesn't work.

Answer 4 · 2010-01-21T14:01:41.000Z

Oh, therefore HTML (a subset?) seems to be supported in comments ;-)

Answer 5 · 2010-01-22T09:50:21.000Z

Sorry my fault, I wasn't aware that Markdown also supports regular HTML tags.
Anyway, the a^2 and arrow -> syntax mentioned in the example doesn't seem to work.

Answer 6 · 2010-03-17T13:08:10.000Z

Doesn't seem to parse valgrind reports very well, eg. http://github.com/facebook/hiphop-php/issues/#issue/50 a bit down. Nor gdb tracebacks for that matter.

a^2 works for me, but not ->

Given that this page is offered as the primary example linked from the GitHub Flavored Markdown page, it would be great if it rendered correctly. So thanks to the wonderful fact that comments themselves use this very markdown, I've included a c&p of the corresponding referenced source (with the exception of the following minor fix, s/</</, in the <pre> example which appears to be indicative of what is arguably a bug in the <pre> parsing code):

Seems to be similar to the "MultiMarkDown" thing but I'm not sure about that and it just works. The alignments do not, apparently (the :----, :-----: ------: thing).

Edit: Plugin for Sublime Tex 2.

Answer 25 · 2012-07-01T22:26:06.000Z

Ok, then let me try this here:

Foo	Bar
Egg	Spam

... interestingly it shows the exact same problems as the <table> version. My guess is that sometime in the last few days some update wrecked table support on github and that old files are cached rendered and thus still look right.

When you click on "Edit" and then on "Preview" in the README.md you linked you see the exact same thing.

Answer 26 · 2012-07-24T14:43:30.000Z

Yeah, seems to be fixed now.

Answer 27 · 2012-08-18T02:26:17.000Z

It seems that un-necessary parsing happens within preformatted blocks < pre > ...< /pre >
For example the existance of a single '&' in the preformated block causes a parse error to be generated and the whole pre formatted block to become pink....

To avoid that you need to replace all your ampersands within pre with & amp ; ...
I am assuming that this is a parsing bug of the markdown library and not a standard behavior, correct?

Answer 28 · 2012-08-19T11:18:32.000Z

Broken

This soo doesn't work properly. And they still don't allow HTML inside <del>code<del> tags (which is probably a feature, not a bug). And as a previous commenter said:

Given that this page is offered as the primary example linked from the GitHub Flavored Markdown page, it would be great if it rendered correctly.

So I decided to try it on my own :)

Well, it's because of the < in the ascii art. Is this a parsing error? Replace it with < to see:

Preformatted blocks are useful for ASCII art:

             ,-. 
    ,     ,-.   ,-. 
   / \   (   )-(   ) 
   \ |  ,.>-(   )-< 
    \|,' (   )-(   ) 
     Y ___`-'   `-' 
     |/__/   `-' 
     | 
     | 
     |    -hrr- 
  ___|_____________

and we seem ok now.

Writing < doesn't work, as you'd expect.

I don't believe the github wiki feature allows embedded HTML at all. Security issue intended to prevent insertion of malicious javascript. This is unfortunate since embedded HTML is a standard way to do tables in markdown. Github Flavored Markdown (GFM) supports tables, but this makes editing your content (e.g. with a desktop markdown editor ) pretty difficult since markdown editors don't support GFM!

Answer 47 · 2013-07-12T13:45:29.000Z

Not all HTML tags are <script> tags. Using <em> to emphasize text is perfectly valid. You can also used <table> tags for tables (iirc). (And there are for sure text editors who support Multimarkdown tables (e.g. for Sublime Text there is a plugin).)

(~~strikeout~~ using <del>)

Jesdisciple commented a month ago:

I wish [reference links][1] would work.

[1]: They don't.

Do you mean "I wish reference links would work without a link"?

This markdown:

Working: [2], [3], [4]. Failing: [5], [6], [7], [8]

[2]: http://github.com/ "This works."
[3]: http://github.com/ 'Works.'
[4]: http://github.com/
[5]: http://github.com/ Fails
[6]: "Fails."
[7]: 'Fails.'
[8]: Fails.

Generates the following HTML:

<p>Working: <a href="https://github.com/" title="This works.">2</a>, <a href="https://github.com/" title="Works.">3</a>, <a href="https://github.com/">4</a>. Failing: [5], <a href="%22Fails.%22">6</a>, <a href="'Fails.'">7</a>, <a href="Fails.">8</a></p>

Which looks like so:

Working: 2, 3, 4. Failing: [5], 6, 7, 8

[5]: http://github.com/ Fails

Huh, here is an interesting bug:

Markdown:

[9], [10], [11], [12].

[9]: file://google.com/foo "Fails interestingly."
[10]: ftp://google.com/foo "Fails interestingly."
[11]: ssh://google.com/foo "Fails interestingly."
[12]: foo://google.com/foo "Fails interestingly."

HTML source:

<p><a title="Fails interestingly.">9</a>, <a title="Fails interestingly.">10</a>, <a title="Fails interestingly.">11</a>, <a title="Fails interestingly.">12</a>.</p>

HTML:

9, 10, 11, 12.

Woops, looks like I misread the markdown syntax page; I was thinking reference links were footnotes (intra-page links), but they're just ordinary external links.

(But that would be "I wish reference links would work without a URL.")

What's happening to the ASCII art?

             ,-. 
    ,     ,-.   ,-. 
   / \   (   )-(   ) 
   \ |  ,.>-(   )-< 
    \|,' (   )-(   ) 
     Y ___`-'   `-' 
     |/__/   `-' 
     | 
     | 
     |    -hrr- 
  ___|_____________

_Update:_ Found the reason, it's because of the `<` in the ASCII art. Replace it with `<` to fix:

             ,-. 
    ,     ,-.   ,-. 
   / \   (   )-(   ) 
   \ |  ,.>-(   )-< 
    \|,' (   )-(   ) 
     Y ___`-'   `-' 
     |/__/   `-' 
     | 
     | 
     |    -hrr- 
  ___|_____________
