[Headings](docId\:CH1EclxGmlPa-XaZAwY6u) organize your content into sections and establish a clear hierarchy throughout a document. They help readers quickly understand the structure of a page and navigate long-form content.

## Syntax

Headings use standard Markdown syntax.

```markdown
# Heading 1

## Heading 2

### Heading 3
```

Three heading levels are supported:

- `#` creates a first-level heading.
- `##` creates a second-level heading.
- `###` creates a third-level heading.

Use heading levels sequentially to maintain a logical document structure.

## Example

The following example creates a simple document outline using all supported heading levels.

```markdown
# Getting Started

Introduction and overview.

## Installation

### Requirements
