Learn the basics of Markdown formatting, including how to add headings, lists, links, bold or italic text, and more, with examples of how each looks when rendered. Markdown can be applied in in your team info section and coach notes.

The markdown instructions indicate which keys to use on your keyboard to get the output, for example to make text bold, you will need to add ** before and after the text you want to be bolded.
