Hashnotes

This is an example Hashnote; if you edit it, a new Hashnote with a unique URL will be created.

To share a note with other people, simply copy the link!

Markdown

Hashnotes are written in Markdown, a lightweight markup syntax that gets rendered to HTML. You can find an in-depth authoring guide at the Markdown Guide

Markdown supports unordered lists:

• An unordered item
• Another unordered item
• Yet another unordered item

It also supports ordered lists:

1. First item
2. Second item
3. Third item

You can also add inline elements like:

• Emphasis
• Bold text
• Links

Markdown also supports block quotes:

“Sometimes even to live is an act of courage.”

― Lucius Annaeus Seneca

Code and literal text can be inserted by indenting a paragraph:

# how to run a bash command:
~/ls /etc/

Images

You can’t upload images to Hashnotes, but you can always link to an external image. Here is a photo by Chris from Unsplash:

However, be sure that the host of the image allows hotlinking. You can use e.g. Postimages.org or host the images yourself

Extensions

Hashnotes supports some common Markdown extensions like fenced code blocks:

# Python code sample
def example():
    print("This is an example function")

It also supports footnotes.¹
