Tables

Tables let you place content clearly next to one another.

Option 1: table with two or more columns

In a table with two or more columns, individual cells are separated by vertical bars |. The table header is marked by an additional row of hyphens - below it.

Heading 1 | Heading 2\n-------- | --------\nText 1.1 | Text 1.2\nText 2.1 | Text 2.2


Advanced formatting: table option 1


Option 2: table with one left-aligned column

Individual cells are separated by vertical bars | on the left and right. The table header is marked by an additional row of hyphens - below it.

| Heading 1 |\n| -------- |\n| Text 1.1 |\n| Text 2.1 |


Advanced formatting: table option 2


Option 3: table with one centered column

Individual cells are separated by vertical bars | on the left and right. The table header is marked by an additional row of hyphens - below it, enclosed by colons :.

| Heading 1 |\n| :------: |\n| Text 1.1 |

Horizontal rules

Horizontal lines help you separate and structure content further. When three or more asterisks *** or hyphens --- appear on a line by themselves, they are displayed as a horizontal rule.
