Markdown

An ever-growing cheatsheet for Markdown. I add things that I think are useful but difficult to unearth or understand.

Have some Markdown links to open in a new tab

To have a HTML link open in a new tab, you would write something like:

<a href="https://letterformarchive.org" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">
    Letterform Archive
</a>

You can do this in Markdown (depending on which converter you use) without needing to intersperse HTML. Here’s how, using the same link as above:

[Letterform Archive](https://letterformarchive.org){:target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"}
