Datrm.in supports using Markdown syntax in Activity posts, so you can add formatting, bulleted lists, links, etc. If you’re not familiar with Markdown, it’s a style of simple formatting for text.
Here’s the specific Markdown syntax supported in Datrm.in:
Links
[Linked text](https://url.com)
Emphasis
**bold text** or __bold text__ (2 underscores)
*italic text* or _italic text_ (1 underscore)
Blockquotes
> Create a quote
Lists
* Unordered
* lists
– Unordered
– lists
1. Ordered
2. Lists
* To create a sublist
* Just put 2 spaces in front
Code
`Format inline code with backticks`
```
# To format a code block
Type 3 backticks above and below
your code block
```
Horizontal line
Text with 3 stars below it
***
Headings
(Warning: using these looks really funky in the activity feed, but hey — have fun!)
# Heading 1
## Heading 2
### Heading 3
#### Heading 4
##### Heading 5
###### Heading 6
Images
Paragraphs
To create separate paragraphs,
Just leave an an empty line.
Literal characters
What if you actually want to display a character, such as * or # with out it being used by Markdown?
Put a backslash in front of it, like \* or \#. That will display the character normally.
The following characters can be used normally with a backslash in front:
/ backslash
` backtick
* asterick
_ underscore
{} curly brackets
[] square brackets
() parentheses
# hash mark
+ plus sign
– minus sign (hyphen)
. dot
! exclamation mark
Notes
- Markdown aficionados may note the absence of other tags, such as tables. Since Markdown in Datrm.in is primarily used to format basic activity, we try to keep it relatively clean.
