How to right-align and justify-align in Markdown?

Question

Aligning text in native markdown is not possible. However, you can align the text using inline HTML tags.

<div style="text-align: right"> your-text-here </div>

To justify, replace right with justify in the above.

If you want to right-align in a form, you can try:

| Option | Description |
| ------:| -----------:|
| data   | path to data files to supply the data that will be passed into templates. |
| engine | engine to be used for processing templates. Handlebars is the default. |
| ext    | extension to be used for dest files. |

If you want to use justify align in Jupyter Notebook use the following syntax:

<p style='text-align: justify;'> Your Text </p>

For right alignment:

<p style='text-align: right;'> Your Text </p>

As mentioned here, markdown do not support right aligned text or blocks. But the HTML result does it, via Cascading Style Sheets (CSS).

On my Jekyll Blog is use a syntax which works in markdown as well. To "terminate" a block use two spaces at the end or two times new line.

Of course you can also add a css-class with {: .right } instead of {: style="text-align: right" }.

Text to right

{: style="text-align: right" }
This text is on the right

Text as block

{: style="text-align: justify" }
This text is a block
