*this text is bold* gets this text is bold

_this text is in italics_ gets this text is in italics

The number is the importance level. E.g h1. is more important then h2. and and will be displayed with a larger font.

* Another item in a bulleted list

• Another item in a bulleted list

create an ordered list

# Another item in a numbered list

will be displayed:

1. Item in a numbered list
