Lists ¶
Unordered List ¶
Bullet point lists can be created by starting each line with an asterisk followed by a space before the content of the bullet point. Note that the space is important and should not be forgotten.
Example:
Unordered List Example
- Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet
- Consectetur adipiscing elit
- Integer molestie lorem at massa
- Facilisis in pretium nisl aliquet
Result:
- Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet
- Consectetur adipiscing elit
- Integer molestie lorem at massa
- Facilisis in pretium nisl aliquet
Ordered List ¶
Similarly, numbered lists can be created by starting each line with a number followed by a space and then the relevant text.
Ordered List Example
1. Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet
2. Consectetur adipiscing elit
3. Integer molestie lorem at massa
4. Faucibus porta lacus fringilla vel
5. Aenean sit amet erat nunc
6. Eget porttitor lorem
Result:
- Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet
- Consectetur adipiscing elit
- Integer molestie lorem at massa
- Faucibus porta lacus fringilla vel
- Aenean sit amet erat nunc
- Eget porttitor lorem
Blocks List ¶
Blocks List Example
> - list under lists
> - under lists
Result:
- list under lists
- under lists
Tasklists ¶
A task list is a set of tasks that each render on a separate line with a clickable checkbox. You can select or deselect the checkboxes to mark the tasks as complete or incomplete.
You can use Markdown to create a task list in any comment on GitHub. If you reference an issue, pull request, or discussion in a task list, the reference will unfurl to show the title and state.
Example:
Task List Example
- [x] Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit
- [ ] Vestibulum convallis sit amet nisi a tincidunt
- [x] In hac habitasse platea dictumst
- [x] In scelerisque nibh non dolor mollis congue sed et metus
- [ ] Praesent sed risus massa
- [ ] Aenean pretium efficitur erat, donec pharetra, ligula non scelerisque
Result:
- Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit
- Vestibulum convallis sit amet nisi a tincidunt
- In hac habitasse platea dictumst
- In scelerisque nibh non dolor mollis congue sed et metus
- Praesent sed risus massa
- Aenean pretium efficitur erat, donec pharetra, ligula non scelerisque
