# HedgeDoc Flavored Markdown
HedgeDoc has its own markdown dialect which supports many features from [CommonMark][commonmark] and [Github Flavored Markdown][gfm]. It also adds some new extensions and is missing some.

## Embeddings
HFM 1 includes support for certain embeddings of external content by using the `{%keyword parameter %}` syntax. To increase the readability of the markdown code we decided that HFM 2 should just use plain links if possible.
| Feature | HFM 1 | HFM 2 | CommonMark | GFM |
|--------------------------|:-----:|:------------------:|:----------:|:---:|
| PDF (`{%pdf ... %}`) | ☑️ | removed | | |
| [YouTube][youtube] (`{%youtube ... %}`) | ☑️ | with plain link[^embed] | | |
| [Vimeo][vimeo] (`{%vimeo ... %}`) | ☑️ | with plain link[^embed] | | |
| [Slideshare][slideshare] (`{%slideshare ... %}`) | ☑️ | removed | | |
| [Speakerdeck][speakerdeck] (`{%speakerdeck ... %}`) | ☑️ | removed | | |
| [GitHub Gist][gist] (`{%gist ... %}`) | ☑️ | with plain link[^embed] | | |
[^embed]: The special syntax from HFM 1 is deprecated, but will still work in HFM 2. However, a plain link to the content should be used.
## HTML
Besides the basic HTML typography elements (`<p>`, `<a>`, `<b>`, `<ins>`, `<del>`) the following more special HTML elements are supported by some specification.
