# Use Markdown Lowcoder supports you using the lightweight markup language Markdown to format texts in your app, such as changing the font size, inserting code, and adding a list. You can also embed HTML-formatted text in Markdown for more styling options. Use Markdown in **Text** and **Table** components. * **Text**: Use Markdown for the input text. * **Table**: Use Markdown for column type. ## Markdown basics All Markdown syntax is valid in Lowcoder. * **Headings**: Use hashtag (#) before heading. More hashtags, lower heading level. * **Paragraphs**: Use a blank line to separate texts into paragraphs. * **Line breaks**: Add at least two whitespaces at the end of a line and press **Enter** to start a new line. * **Emphasis**: Use single asterisk (∗) before and after text to convert it to _italic_ text, double asterisks (∗∗) for **bold** text, and triple asterisks (∗∗∗) for _**italic bold**_ text. * **Blockquotes**: Use the closing angle bracket (>) to create a blockquote. * **Lists**: Use hyphen (-), asterisk (∗), or plus sign (+) followed by a whitespace to create an unordered list, and use numbers followed by a period (.) to create an ordered list. * **Code**: Use backticks (\`) before and after code to denote `` `code` `` in plain text, and three backticks (\`\`\`) to present ` ```code block``` `. * **Horizontal rules**: Use at least three asterisks (∗∗∗), hyphens (---), or underscores (\_ \_ \_) at the beginning of a line to create a horizontal rule. * **Links**: Use square brackets (\[]) for the display text and parenthesis (()) for the link address. Note that no space should be inbetween. For example, `[Lowcoder](https://docs.Lowcoder.cloud)`. * **Images**: Use an exclamation mark (!) to start an image shiinsertion, and then use square bracket (\[]) for the alternative text and parenthesis (()) for the link address or source path. The caption can follow the parentheses or start at a new line. * **Escaping characters**: Use backslash (\\) to display the special symbols that Markdown uses. For instance, to print ` `` ` in plain text, you should use `` \`\` `` in Markdown. For more information, see [Markdown guide](https://www.markdownguide.org/basic-syntax/). ## GFM extension You can also use GitHub Flavored Markdown (GFM) extensions for additional syntax. * **Footnotes**: Use caret (^) and number in square brackets (\[]) to insert footnotes. For more information, see [Footnotes](https://docs.github.com/en/get-started/writing-on-github/getting-started-with-writing-and-formatting-on-github/basic-writing-and-formatting-syntax#footnotes). * **Strikethrough lines**: Use double tilde (\~\~) before and after text to add strikethrough lines. For more information, see [Styling text](https://docs.github.com/en/get-started/writing-on-github/getting-started-with-writing-and-formatting-on-github/basic-writing-and-formatting-syntax#styling-text). * **Tables**: Use hyphens (-) separated by the vertical bar (|) to create the header row of a table, and continue using the vertical bar to separate content in cells. For more information, see [Tables (extension)](https://github.github.com/gfm/#tables-extension-). * **Task lists**: Use a whitespace in square brackets (\[ ]) within the list format to create task lists. To mark a task completed, replace the whitespace with the letter _x_. For more information, see [Task lists](https://docs.github.com/en/get-started/writing-on-github/getting-started-with-writing-and-formatting-on-github/basic-writing-and-formatting-syntax#task-lists). ## HTML support In Lowcoder, you can use most HTML tags and properties. For more information, see [Embed HTML in Markdown](https://www.markdownguide.org/basic-syntax/#html). {% hint style="warning" %} For security reasons, a few HTML tags including **iframe** and **script** are not permitted in Lowcoder. {% endhint %} ### Appendix: Supported HTML tags ```html
