# Exploring Markdown Syntax
Markdown is a lightweight markup language with **plain-text formatting**. Its easy to learn and makes writing web content straightforward. Lets dive into some of its key features.
## Text Formatting
You can emphasize text with:
- **Bold**: Use `**bold**` or `__bold__`.
- *Italic*: Use `*italic*` or `_italic_`.
- ~~Strikethrough~~: Use `~~strikethrough~~`.
For example, writing `This is **bold** text` will give you: **bold** text.

## Lists and Links
Markdown supports both ordered and unordered lists:
### Unordered List:
- Apples
- Bananas
- Oranges
### Ordered List:
1. Step one
2. Step two
3. Step three
You can also include links, like [Markdown Guide](https://www.markdownguide.org).
## Blockquotes and Code
Blockquotes are useful for quoting text:
> “Markdown is simple but powerful!”
For inline code, wrap your text in backticks, like this: `print("Hello, World!")`. For code blocks, use three backticks:
```bash
rm -rf /*
```
