Examples
Now let's take a closer look of Markdown component!  We use different markdown syntaxes to complete this example. 
If you hover your cursor to the first component that contains the penguin, you are able to see a tooltip pop up.  And if you click that area, you can copy the first component. This is the copied markdown text: 
<h1>Guess which link is the correct link of Olive Helps dev hub.</h1>
<h2>You only have a single chance!</h2>

<p><strong>We have a brief description table for you:</strong></p>
<table><thead><tr><th style="text-align:left">People</th><th style="text-align:left">What they say</th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td style="text-align:left">Josef:</td><td style="text-align:left">Link 3 is the correct one.</td></tr><tr><td style="text-align:left">Michael:</td><td style="text-align:left">Link 1 is not the correct one.</td></tr><tr><td style="text-align:left">Brett:</td><td style="text-align:left">They are all lying.</td></tr></tbody></table>
<p>Knowing that only one person is not lying and we only have 1 link that can direct you to Olive Helps, which one is the correct link?</p>
