Horizontal Rules

Not every section break needs a heading. When you just want a clean visual line between two unrelated blocks of content, the end of one topic before an unrelated one starts, or a shift in tone, a horizontal rule does the job without adding another entry to your outline.

Syntax

Put three or more dashes, asterisks, or underscores on their own line, with nothing else on that line.
