Markdown tables

• How To

I just discovered markdown tables can be used to nicely format your list of featured games on your profile description:

For example, this:

| Games | Tools | Libraries | Demonstrations |
|---|---|---|---|
| [NyanCat](https://lowresnx.inutilis.com/topic.php?id=1871) | [TraditionalGrapher](https://lowresnx.inutilis.com/topic.php?id=3244) | [NX-MusicFile](https://lowresnx.inutilis.com/topic.php?id=2508) | [CollidableTerrain](https://lowresnx.inutilis.com/topic.php?id=2864) |
| [OrbitSimulator](https://lowresnx.inutilis.com/topic.php?id=1908) | [FastGrapher](https://lowresnx.inutilis.com/topic.php?id=3357) | [LowresCoder](https://lowresnx.inutilis.com/topic.php?id=3390) | [RasterRacer](https://lowresnx.inutilis.com/topic.php?id=2848) |

Looks like this:

Tables are just not very mobile friendly, because they do not wrap on small screens.
Just like „retro“ web design ;)

I see. That might be an issue

indeed, have fun using them!

Sylveon, you have to enable "Markdown" for your post ("Attach..." button). And then links are auto-detected anyway :)

I just enhanced the mobile optimization of the table on my profile page by shortening all program names and using spaces insstead of camelcase to separate words

Ok I did it :3

I just found some new tech, so this is just a quick backup of my current profile featured section, also you can note that the words used in the table are short to allow the table to fit on a mobile screen width
