See more about admonitions here

..  TIP::

Caution

Caution message

Danger

Danger zone!

Note

Important note!

Tip

Just a tip!

References

To reference a chapter anywhere in the documentation, add a label over the heading:

.. _my-reference-label:

Section to cross-reference
--------------------------

This is the text of the section.

It refers to the section itself, see :ref:`my-reference-label`.

Tip

Always use underscore, _, first in the reference, but never when you use the reference.

Tabs

Tabs are used via an extension and how to use can be found here.

The different tabs are tab, group-tab and code-tab.

.. tabs::

   .. tab:: Apples

      Apples are green, or sometimes red.

   .. tab:: Pears

      Pears are green.

Tip

The different tabs are tab, group-tab and code-tab. With group-tab, all examples changes tab at the same time. code-tab is self explanatory, but note that it behaves like group-tab.

Example tab

Apples are green, or sometimes red.

Code snippets

..  code-block:: language

   Some code here ...

Numbered lists

3. First numbered item starts with three.
4. The next numbered item, four.
#. Auto numbering. Will be 5.

Will generate the following list:

  1. First numbered item starts with three.

  2. The next numbered item, four.

  3. Auto numbering. Will be 5.

Footnotes

A footnote can be created:

I have something to say [#footnoteWithUniqueName]_.

and used like so:

..  rubric:: Footnotes

..  [#footnoteWithUniqueName] Some extra important information!

Example footnote

I have something to say [1].

Footnotes

Images

Images can be added by putting an image in the images-folder and using the following code for an image:

..  |example-image| image:: images/exampledocimage.png
    :alt: alternate text
    :align: right

Tip

Please add the image reference to the bottom of the file. It makes the file so much easier to read.

Then, just use |example-image| where you want the image to be inserted.

alternate text

You can also specify more image tags:

:height: 100px
:width: 200 px
:scale: 50 %
:alt: alternate text
:align: right
