The Ultimate Markdown Syntax Guide & Cheat Sheet

Your one-stop reference for all things Markdown. From standard GFM formatting to advanced features like Mermaid diagrams and LaTeX mathโ€”everything you need to write structured, rich content.

1Typography, Formatting & Text Styles

Master basic formatting: bold, italic, strikethrough, and heading levels (H1-H6). Learn how to style text for emphasis and clarity.

Markdown
# Heading Level 1
## Heading Level 2
### Heading Level 3
#### Heading Level 4
##### Heading Level 5
###### Heading Level 6

You can make text **bold**, *italic*, or ***both***.
You can also use ~~strikethrough~~ to indicate deleted text.

Using HTML tags for subscript/superscript:
H<sub>2</sub>O and E = mc<sup>2</sup>

Keyboard input:

5Code Blocks & Syntax Highlighting

Display code snippets with syntax highlighting for various programming languages (Python, JS, etc.) and use inline code for variables.

Markdown
Inline code is wrapped in backticks: `const x = 10;`

```tsx
import React from 'react';

const Button = ({ children }) => {
  return (
    <button className="bg-blue-500 text-white px-4 py-2 rounded">
      {children}
    </button>
  );
};
```

```python
def fibonacci(n):
    if n <= 1:
        return n
    return fibonacci(n-1) + fibonacci(n-2)
```

```json
{
  "name": "md2word",
  "version": "1.0.0",
  "features": ["html", "docx", "pdf"]
}
```

9LaTeX Math & Equations

Render complex mathematical formulas using LaTeX syntax math blocks (KaTeX). Perfect for scientific and academic writing.

Markdown
### 1. Simple (Inline & Block)
Newton's second law is $F=ma$.
The mass-energy equivalence:
$$ E = mc^2 $$

### 2. Medium (Integrals & Fractions)
The Gaussian Integral:
$$
\int_{-\infty}^\infty e^{-x^2}dx = \sqrt{\pi}
$$

### 3. Complex (Limits & Summation)
Definition of Derivative:
$$
\frac{\partial f}{\partial x} = \lim_{h \to 0} \frac{f(x+h) - f(x)}{h}
$$

Sum of Squares:
$$
\sum_{i=1}^{n} i^2 = \frac{n(n+1)(2n+1)}{6}
$$
