[Bare reference link][]
[1]: https://example.com

[Bare reference link]: https://example.com

There must be at least 3 dashes separating each header cell. The outer pipes (|) are optional, and you don’t need to make the raw Markdown line up prettily. You can also use inline Markdown.

Details and Summary

Details elements are great for creating expandable sections:

Basic example

This is a simple details element with plain text content.

With Markdown inside summary

You can use Markdown inside the details:

  • List item 1
  • List item 2
// Even code blocks work
const x = "Hello World";
🔍 Common use case: API Response
{
"status": "success",
"data": {
"id": 123,
"name": "Example"
}
}
💡 Implementation Notes

Important: Remember to add a blank line after the summary tag when using Markdown inside details.

This ensures proper Markdown parsing.
