So, since I always want to write something but always get frustrating by the problem I’ve been encountered continuously. I will make some rules to help me get over them.

It’s will be two sections which cover the rules and mathods in writing.

Annotating Rules

This part will cover how to annotating, be simple yet can handle complex contents.

Emphasis

Smphasis has five different express, Bold, Italic, underscore, Color and the mix of first two, Bold italic. Those all have not much difference of usage but depends on taste of user.

So I’ll restrain myself from using them randomly.

  • Bold

From my view, it’s a strong express. So I’ll use it only when something really important which may causing error or really need to be highlighted! and it should only effect on 1 or 2 words.

  • Italic

Italic is also used to highlight. But the expression is not so strong as bold. therefore, this effect will be used on new words that worth to noting. such as noun that first shows up but is a key word for next few sections, or adverb of degree.

  • Bold Italic

This one is too strong to use, I don’t need it since the previous two can handle most situation. So it will pass.

  • underline

Underscore is another emphasis method, but since it is used on link mostly. I’ll follow the rule: Only for link.

  • Color

Markdown doesn’t support color annotation natively. So here’s no reason I should use it. Besides, colorful blog is really ugly.

To conclusion, Italic and Bold are the major methods I’ll be using, and they are used to support different purpose.

first one is to emphasis new noun and adverb of degree whereas second is for something really important.

Typesetting

This part will cover how to set the content settings to make it looks better.

  • Block

This is a block Block is too common since it can easily fit in multi-situation. But I’ll restrict the usage of it to unify the style.

Only use it as footnote, and should use it no more than 2 lines.

  • Unordered list

This post is written with unordered list to list rules. And that’s it, use it when context is not in order.

  • Ordered List

Opposite with unordered list, use it when context has order.

  • Indent

Indent is not markdown native feature, so I’ll keep away from it.

Typesetting is the key to beautify pages. Even though the rules are few, I still need to keep in mind. Especially the block.

That’s for now. Update will continue if anything new.
