# Nostr Markdown Guide

I have compiled a list of markdown code that can be used when posting on Nostr.

I have only tested this on the snort.social platform, so there could be some addtional markdown codes available on other platforms.

Please let me know if I have missed any and I will append it to the list.

## Headings

You can create headings by using the hashtag (\#). See below examples:

\# Heading 1

# Heading 1

\## Heading 2

## Heading 2

\### Heading 3

### Heading 3

You can create more levels of headings, but you get the point.

## Text Styling

\**This is bold text\**

**This is bold text**

\*This is italic text\*

*This is italic text*

\**This is bold and nested \_italic\_ text\**

**This is bold an nested _italic_ text**

\***This is all bold and italic text\***

***This is all bold and italic text***

## Quoted Text

You may want to quote some clever genius.

\> "I'm not afraid of death; I just don't want to be there when it happens." - Woody Allen

> "I'm not afraid of death; I just don't want to be there when it happens." - Woody Allen

## Lists

You can make normal and numbered lists.

\- I am item number 1.

\- We cannot all be number 1.

\- I am item number 1 reversed.

- I am item number 1.

- We cannot all be number 1.

- I am item number 1 reversed.

\1. I am item number 1.

\2. We cannot all be number 1.

\3. I am item number 1 reversed.

1. I am item number 1.

2. We cannot all be number 1.

3. I am item number 1 reversed.

Nested lists are created by having the first nested item align with the first letter of the item above.

\- I am item number 1.

\- We cannot all be number 1.

\- I am item number 1 reversed.

- I am item number 1.

- We cannot all be number 1.

- I am item number 1 reversed.

## Emojis

Yay! You can use all sorts of emojis by start typing \: followed by any other character.

You can find an emojis cheat sheet from ikatyang github here https://github.com/ikatyang/emoji-cheat-sheet/blob/master/README.md.

\:tada\:

## Disable Markdown Rendering

If you want to actually use some of the letters that is creating a markdown, you need to use the backslash character (\).

\# I can write anything and it doesn't show as heading 1

# Did I forget anything?

If I forgot anything, please let me know and I will add it to the list.
