How to Use Markdown on Pinch?
Here’s how you can use Markdown to format an event description.
Text Formatting
To add emphasis to your text, use either asterisk (*) or underscores (_).
 *Italic* or _Italic_ will appear as Italic.
Make important information stand out by using double asterisks (**) or double underscores (__).
**Bold** or __Bold__ will appear as Bold.
Headings
Headings are great for structuring your content and guiding your readers:
Create a main heading using a single hash symbol (#).
# Heading 1
Use two hash symbols (##) for subheadings.
## Heading 2
Links
Enhance your descriptions with links to additional information.
