A demo of all styled markdown elements in Jekyll Boilerplate. 

This is a paragraph, it's surrounded by whitespace. Next up are some headers, they're heavily influenced by GitHub's markdown style.

* A bulletted list
- alternative syntax 1
+ alternative syntax 2
  - an indented list item
 
1. An
2. ordered
3. list

Inline markup styles: 

- _italics_
- **bold**
- `code()` 
 
> Blockquote
>> Nested Blockquote 
 
Code:
 
    // Code is just text indented a bit
    which(is_easy) to_remember();
 
~~~
 
// Markdown extra adds un-indented code blocks too
 
if (this_is_more_code == true && !indented) {
    // tild wrapped code blocks, also not indented
}
 
~~~
 
Use two trailing spaces  
on the right  
to create linebreak tags  
 
Finally, horizontal lines
