Where can I find Markdown language documentation? - github

I just a newbie on github. I'm doing my Project with the Markdown file type on that. So, can you show me where can I find full of Markdown Documentation?

Markdown is a lightweight and easy-to-use syntax for styling all forms of writing on the GitHub platform.
You can find this:
https://guides.github.com/features/mastering-markdown/

The best place to learn about markdown would be https://guides.github.com/features/mastering-markdown/

Another Markdown reference I have found useful is https://www.markdownguide.org/basic-syntax . This documentation gives reference to Markdown code next to HTML code that helps users understand the syntax more easily if they are familiar with HTML and its outputs.

Rendering md from quarto in Github

I have a markdown created using the (new) RStudio quarto engine. I want to upload the .md in a Github repo. However, few elements render properly. For instance, many tables do not render, some markdown code renders as is (e.g. :::{.column-page}).
This is my first time using quarto. If I want to create an r markdown that is as compatible with Github markdown engine as possible, what should I do (I don't have to stick with quarto)?
You can use Quarto to convert your input to GitHub Flavored Markdown (gfm) by using
format: gfm
It should be possible to use the output with both Quarto and GitHub.
See also the Quarto docs on gfm.
You can check out GitHub's documentation on what syntax it supports for its Markdown engine, Basic writing and formatting syntax, which though covers a lot of scenarios doesn't out-of-the-box support engines like the RStudio Quarto one you mention.
Another option you have is to use GitHub Pages, where you can generate a static site using tools like Jekyll and some custom plugins for your use case, to generate a static site and upload it.
I don't know off the top of my head specific plugins for RStudio Quarto, but I'd imagine you should be able to find one of the static site generator tools will support it. Hope this helps!

How to I get Visual Studio Code to treat <webscript> the same way it treats <script>?

I’m working on HTML files which contain JavaScript inside <webscript> tags. Can I customize Visual Studio Code so that it treats these tags the same way it treats <script> tags, i.e. with syntax highlighting, etc.?
AFAIK, there is no direct way to customize this in Code. But you could write your own language configuration. A documentation with a sample file can be found at: https://code.visualstudio.com/api/language-extensions/language-configuration-guide
The most easiest way would searching for the default html language configuration copy this file and just edit the regex for script to support webscript, too. Should be this one on GitHub

Migrate Confluence to Github wiki (Gollum)

Does somebody know a nice way to migrate a Confluence wiki to the Github wiki (aka Gollum) ?
By nice way I mean quick and effective.
You can export whole spaces to html format, and than use pandoc to rewrite pages to ReST|Markdown
I had a similar problem, so I threw together some Python code to do this:
https://github.com/gergelykalman/confluence-markdown-exporter
It is pretty basic but it worked well for me.

Markdown not rendered in embedded gist

My gist markdown is not rendering when I embed it. Is this a GitHub issue, or am I doing it wrong?
The gist:
https://gist.github.com/3094145
The non-rendering embedded gist:
http://jsfiddle.net/dJnBg/
Thanks!
*2012-12-11 Update: Today github pushed out a complete rewrite of gist.github.com, and this is no longer a problem. For proof, see screenshot. *
It looks deliberate. It's worth noting that syntax highlighting still works in embeds, but not (alas) markdown rendering.
A potential workaround might be to add additional JS code (after the gist embed JS) that renders the markdown client-side, perhaps via http://www.showdown.im/
I made an issue for myself to do this for the redmine gist embed plugin I wrote.
https://github.com/dergachev/redmine_gist/issues/3
Perhaps by the time you're reading this I got around to tackling this ;)

How can I add functionalities to Sublime Text 2?

I recently discovered this Sublime Text editor, and since I love to code with it, I would like to add more custom functionalities to it.
Is it possible to use some scripting language to enhance its core features? I found some python references on the main folder, but I didn't find anything useful in the documentation on the official site. I guess the editor is written in Python?
Until now I managed only to add custom snippets, but that's not what I'm looking for.
Any help?
I figured it out anyway, looks like I didn't look well enough in the docs.
