GitHub Flavored Markdown

Everything from markdown plus GFM features

## URL autolinking

Underscores_are_allowed_between_words.

## Strikethrough text

GFM adds syntax to strikethrough text, which is missing from standard Markdown.

~~Mistaken text.~~ ~~**works with other formatting**~~

~~spans across lines~~

## Fenced code blocks (and syntax highlighting)

```javascript for (var i = 0; i < items.length; i++) { console.log(items[i], i); // log them } ```

## Task Lists

- [ ] Incomplete task list item - [x] **Completed** task list item

## A bit of GitHub spice

Defines a mode that parses a YAML frontmatter at the start of a file, switching to a base mode at the end of that. Takes a mode configuration option base to configure the base mode, which defaults to "gfm" .

var editor = CodeMirror.fromTextArea(document.getElementById("code"), {mode: "yaml-frontmatter"});
