GitHub Footnote Syntax

Example from https://docs.github.com/en/get-started/writing-on-github/getting-started-with-writing-and-formatting-on-github/basic-writing-and-formatting-syntax#footnotes

Here is a simple footnote1.

A footnote can also have multiple lines2.

You can also use words, to fit your writing style more closely3.


  1. My reference. ↩︎

  2. Every new line should be prefixed with 2 spaces. This allows you to have a footnote with multiple lines. ↩︎

  3. Named footnotes will still render with numbers instead of the text but allow easier identification and linking. This footnote also has been made with a different syntax using 4 spaces for new lines. ↩︎
