Tables

Create tables in Markdown like this:

| Chef Software | Description |
| --------|------ |
| Chef Infra Client | Awesome |
| Chef Infra Server | Fun |
| Chef Habitat | Super cool |

Use three or more hyphens (—) to separate each column’s header from the content of the table. Separate columns with a vertical bar or pipe (|).

Table vs list

Use tables for displaying data. Don’t use tables for defining CLI commands, properties, parameters, or other terms. Use a definition list to define terms.
