+# Markdown Help
+
+Markdown makes it easy to format messages. Type a message as you normally would, and use these rules to render it with special formatting.
+
+## Text Style:
+
+You can use either `_` or `*` around a word to make it italic. Use two to make it bold.
+
+* `_italics_` renders as _italics_
+* `**bold**` renders as **bold**
+* `**_bold-italic_**` renders as **_bold-italics_**
+* `~~strikethrough~~` renders as ~~strikethrough~~
+
+## Code:
+
+Create a code block by indenting four spaces, or by placing ``` on the line above and below your code.
+
+Example:
+
+ ```
+ code block
+ ```
+
+Renders as:
+```
+code block
+```
+
+Create in-line monospaced font by surrounding it with back spaces.
+```
+`monospace`
+```
+Renders as: `monospace`.
+
+## Links:
+
+Create labeled links by putting the desired text in square brackets and the associated link in normal brackets.
+
+`[Check out Mattermost!](www.mattermost.com)`
+
+Renders as: [Check out Mattermost!](www.mattermost.com)
+
+## In-line Images
+
+Create in-line images using an `!` followed by the alt text in square brackets and the link in normal brackets. Add hover text by placing it in quotes after the link.
+```
+![alt text](link "hover text")
+
+and
+

+
+## Emojis
+
+Check out a full list of emojis [here](http://www.emoji-cheat-sheet.com/).
+
+```
+:smile: :+1: :sheep:
+```
+Renders as:
+:smile: :+1: :sheep:
+
+## Lines:
+
+Create a line by using three `*`, `_`, or `-`.
+
+`***` renders as:
+***
+
+## Block quotes:
+
+Create block quotes using `>`.
+
+`> block quotes` renders as:
+> block quotes
+
+## Lists:
+
+Create a list by using `*` or `-` as bullets. Indent a bullet point by adding two spaces in front of it.
+```
+* list item one
+* list item two
+ * item two sub-point
+```
+Renders as:
+* list item one
+* list item two
+ * item two sub-point
+
+Make it an ordered list by using numbers instead:
+```
+1. Item one
+2. Item two
+```
+Renders as:
+1. Item one
+2. Item two
+
+## Tables:
+
+Create a table by placing a dashed line under the header row and separating the columns with a pipe `|`. (The columns don’t need to line up exactly for it to work). Choose how to align table columns by including colons `:` within the header row.
+```
+| Left-Aligned  | Center Aligned  | Right Aligned |
+| :------------ |:---------------:| -----:|
+| Left column 1 | this text       |  $100 |
+| Left column 2 | is              |   $10 |
+| Left column 3 | centered        |    $1 |
+```
+
+Renders as:
+
+| Left-Aligned  | Center Aligned  | Right Aligned |
+| :------------ |:---------------:| -----:|
+| Left column 1 | this text       |  $100 |
+| Left column 2 | is              |   $10 |
+| Left column 3 | centered        |    $1 |
+
+## Headings:
+
+Make a heading by typing # and a space before your title. For smaller headings, use more #’s.
+```
+# Large heading
+## Smaller heading
+### Even smaller heading
+```
+Renders as:
+# Large Heading
+## Smaller Heading
+### Even smaller heading
+
+Alternatively, for the large heading you can underline the text using `===`. For the smaller heading you can underline using `---`
+```
+Large Heading
+=============
+
+Smaller Heading
+--------------
+```
+Renders as:
+Large Heading
+=============
+
+Smaller Heading
