# Markdown basics

CentrMark keeps CommonMark-style prose primitives as the default authoring layer: paragraphs, emphasis, code spans, and fenced blockquotes without fighting prefixes on every line.

## Paragraphs and inline marks

As expected, paragraphs wrap automatically. Text can be **bold**, _italic_, or `inline-code`.

## Blockquotes

You can quote people nicely with fenced blockquotes. They look like giant quotation marks!

You can also nest blockquotes cleanly without prefixes on every single line.

If you ever need to include a quote inside a quote, just put it inside:
