Blockquotes

Blockquotes can also be nested...

...by using additional greater-than signs right next to each other...

...or with spaces between arrows.

Lists

Unordered

Create a list by starting a line with +, -, or *
Sub-lists are made by indenting 2 spaces:
Marker character change forces new list start:
- Ac tristique libero volutpat at
- Facilisis in pretium nisl aliquet
- Nulla volutpat aliquam velit
Very easy!

Ordered

Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet
Consectetur adipiscing elit
Integer molestie lorem at massa
You can use sequential numbers...
...or keep all the numbers as 1.

Start numbering with offset:

foo
bar

Code

Inline code

Indented code

// Some comments

line 2 of code
line 3 of code

Block code "fences"
