Demo of markdown tables, for comparison with ul-table.

From https://docs.github.com/en/get-started/writing-on-github/working-with-advanced-formatting/organizing-information-with-tables

Command Description
git status List all new or modified files
git diff Show file differences that haven't been staged
Left-aligned Center-aligned Right-aligned
git status git status git status
git diff git diff git diff

Github produces this HTML, with align= on every cell. This is a symptom of a problem: HTML doesn't have table alignment by column

<table role="table">
<thead>
<tr>
<th align="left">Left-aligned</th>
<th align="center">Center-aligned</th>
<th align="right">Right-aligned</th>
</tr>
</thead>
<tbody>
<tr>
<td align="left">git status</td>
<td align="center">git status</td>
<td align="right">git status</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td align="left">git diff</td>
<td align="center">git diff</td>
<td align="right">git diff</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
