Introducing to MWeb for iOS
MWeb first is a Markdown editor, the use of Github Flavored Markdown, referred to as GFM, which is one of the most widely used Markdown syntax. If you do not know what Markdown is, it is recommended to take a look at the Markdown syntax guide full version. GFM in addition to support the official syntax, but also extended a lot of grammar, the specific circumstances will be described later in this article.

GFM syntax guide
Newlines
End a line with two or more spaces + enter.
Just typing enter to newline,please go to Settings and enable "Translate newlines to <br> tags" ( default is enable ).
Task lists
Example:
- [ ] task one not finish `- + SPACE + [ ]`
- [x] task two finished `- + SPACE + [x]`
Result:
- task one not finish
- + SPACE + [ ] - task two finished
- + SPACE + [x]
Image size and alignment (Only in MWeb)
Setting image width, align left, align right, align center syntax. For example: , -w450 mean set the image width: 450.  --> align left, width:500.  --> align right, width:500.  --> align center, width:500.
Multi-line code
Example:
```js
function fancyAlert(arg) {
if(arg) {
$.facebox({div:'#foo'})
}
}
```
Result:
function fancyAlert(arg) {
if(arg) {
$.facebox({div:'#foo'})
}
}
Tables
Example:
First Header | Second Header
------------ | -------------
Content from cell 1 | Content from cell 2
Content in the first column | Content in the second column
You can create tables by assembling a list of words and dividing them with hyphens - (for the first row), and then separating each column with a pipe |:
Result:
| First Header | Second Header |
|---|---|
| Content from cell 1 | Content from cell 2 |
| Content in the first column | Content in the second column |
Strikethrough
Example:
(like ~~this~~)
Result:
Any word wrapped with two tildes (like this) will appear crossed out.
LaTeX
Use double US dollors sign pair for Block level Math formula, and one US dollor sign pair for Inline Level.
For example this is a Block level $$x = {-b \pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac} \over 2a}$$ formula, and this is an inline Level $x = {-b \pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac} \over 2a}$ formula.
\\[ \frac{1}{\Bigl(\sqrt{\phi \sqrt{5}}-\phi\Bigr) e^{\frac25 \pi}} =
1+\frac{e^{-2\pi}} {1+\frac{e^{-4\pi}} {1+\frac{e^{-6\pi}}
{1+\frac{e^{-8\pi}} {1+\ldots} } } } \\]
Result:
For example this is a Block level \(x = {-b \pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac} \over 2a}\) formula, and this is an inline Level \(x = {-b \pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac} \over 2a}\) formula.
\[ \frac{1}{\Bigl(\sqrt{\phi \sqrt{5}}-\phi\Bigr) e^{\frac25 \pi}} =
1+\frac{e^{-2\pi}} {1+\frac{e^{-4\pi}} {1+\frac{e^{-6\pi}}
{1+\frac{e^{-8\pi}} {1+\ldots} } } } \]
