We have our README File!

Here you can explain what anyone accessing this repo might need to know.

This is a great place to place links or basic contact information.

Formatting Basics

• Italics: Add one asterisk or underscore around your text *Italics* or _Italics_
• Bold: Add two asterisks or underscores around your text Bold or Bold
• Bold and Italic: Add three asterisks or underscores around your text ***Bold and Italics*** or ___Bold and Italics___

Next Level

• Links: Add brackets around the linked text, then add a parenthesis, your link, and a close parenthesis, like this: [SeeSmitty](https://seesmitty.com/)
• Image: Type an exclamation mark, then an open bracket, then add alt text to describe your image, then close the bracket and add a parenthesis, paste a link to your image, then close the parentheses, like this: ![SeeSmitty Logo](logo.png)
• Quotes: Add a greater-than sign in front of each line of quoted text, like this: > Just do it!
• Code: Add 4 spaces before each line of code, or a backtick before and after the code, like this: ipconfig /all
• Code Block: add three backticks to start the code block section, and three more to end it. This will encase whatever you have in places in a code block.

(BONUS: For common languages, you can add the language at the end of the first set of 3 backticks to have the code Syntax Colored according to what is common for that language.) Example:

Write-Host "Hello World!"

Bullet Points

- Bullet points use a dash then a space after to indicate there is a bullet point. To do a sub bullet point, you add spaces before the dash to indicate what level of indentation you want for your bullet point. - Is a second level bullet So a full bulleted list might look like this:

• First Point
  • First Sub Point
  • Second Sub Point
• Second Point
  • First Sub Point
  • Second Sub Point

Numbered Lists

Numbered lists are the same as bulleted lists as far as making levels and sub levels. The only difference is you use the number instead of the dash.

1. First Point a. First Sub Point b. Second Sub Point
2. Second Point a. First Sub Point b. Second Sub Point

1. The built-in markdown preview tool: When working in a markdown file, in the upper right hand corner of the window, there is a "split pane" button that you can use to preview the markdown file the way it will look. This will help you avoid making more commits than necessary just to figure out your formatting of the documents.
2. Markdown Preview Enhanced: This tool extends the functionality of the built in Preview tool making it cleaner and easier to see. It also adds the functionality of helping you understand what the structure of the file is based on your headings.
3. Markdown Emoji: This extension allows you to see the Emojis and symbols in the markdown preview.
