### `tag`
The most general helper is the tag function:
iex(1)> tag("div", "Some content")
{"div", [], ["Some content"], %{}}
Content and attributes can be provided as arrays, ...
iex(2)> tag("p", ~w[Hello World], class: "hidden")
{"p", [{"class", "hidden"}], ["Hello", "World"], %{}}
... or maps:
iex(3)> tag("p", ~w[Hello World], %{class: "hidden"})
{"p", [{"class", "hidden"}], ["Hello", "World"], %{}}
#### Annotations (as implemented in `EarmarkParser` >= v1.4.16)
In order to not overload tha API for `tag/2`, `tag/3` and `tag/4` we offer the general
`tag_annotated` function
iex(4)> tag_annotated("header", "content", "annotation")
{"header", [], ["content"], %{annotation: "annotation"}}
in this case atts come last
iex(5)> tag_annotated("header", "content", "annotation", class: "two")
{"header", [{"class", "two"}], ["content"], %{annotation: "annotation"}}
### Shortcuts for common tags (`a`, `div`, `li`, `p`)
iex(6)> a("hello", href: "mylink")
{"a", [{"href", "mylink"}], ["hello"], %{}}
iex(7)> p("A para")
{"p", [], ["A para"], %{}}
iex(8)> div(tag("span", "content"))
{"div", [], [{"span", [], ["content"], %{}}], %{}}
iex(9)> li(p("hello"))
{"li", [], [{"p", [], ["hello"], %{}}], %{}}
### Pluriel form for paragraphs `tags`
iex(10)> tags("p", ~W[a b c])
[{"p", [], ["a"], %{}},
{"p", [], ["b"], %{}},
{"p", [], ["c"], %{}}]
More helpers, which are less common are described on their functiondocs

### Tables
Tables are probably the _raison d'être_ ot this little lib, as their ast is quite verbose, as we will see
here:
iex(26)> table("one cell only") # and look at the output
{"table", [], [
{"tbody", [], [
{"tr", [], [
{"td", [{"style", "text-align: left;"}], ["one cell only"], %{}}
], %{}}
], %{}}
], %{}}
Now if we want a header and have some more data:
iex(27)> table([~w[1-1 1-2], ~w[2-1 2-2]], head: ~w[left right]) # This is quite verbose!
{"table", [], [
{"thead", [], [
{"tr", [], [
{"th", [{"style", "text-align: left;"}], ["left"], %{}},
{"th", [{"style", "text-align: left;"}], ["right"], %{}},
], %{}}
], %{}},
{"tbody", [], [
{"tr", [], [
{"td", [{"style", "text-align: left;"}], ["1-1"], %{}},
{"td", [{"style", "text-align: left;"}], ["1-2"], %{}},
], %{}},
{"tr", [], [
{"td", [{"style", "text-align: left;"}], ["2-1"], %{}},
{"td", [{"style", "text-align: left;"}], ["2-2"], %{}},
], %{}}
], %{}}
], %{}}
And tables can easily be aligned differently in Markdown, which makes some style helpers
very useful
iex(28)> table([~w[1-1 1-2], ~w[2-1 2-2]],
...(28)> head: ~w[alpha beta],
...(28)> text_aligns: ~w[right center])
{"table", [], [
{"thead", [], [
{"tr", [], [
{"th", [{"style", "text-align: right;"}], ["alpha"], %{}},
{"th", [{"style", "text-align: center;"}], ["beta"], %{}},
], %{}}
], %{}},
{"tbody", [], [
{"tr", [], [
{"td", [{"style", "text-align: right;"}], ["1-1"], %{}},
{"td", [{"style", "text-align: center;"}], ["1-2"], %{}},
], %{}},
{"tr", [], [
{"td", [{"style", "text-align: right;"}], ["2-1"], %{}},
{"td", [{"style", "text-align: center;"}], ["2-2"], %{}},
], %{}}
], %{}}
], %{}}
Some leeway is given for the determination of the number of columns,
bear in mind that Markdown only supports regularly shaped tables with
a fixed number of columns.
Problems might arise when we have a table like the following
| alpha |
| beta *gamma* |
where the first cell contains one element, but the second two, we can
hint that we only want one by grouping into tuples
iex(29)> table(["alpha", {"beta", tag("em", "gamma")}])
{"table", [], [
{"tbody", [], [
{"tr", [], [
{"td", [{"style", "text-align: left;"}], ["alpha"], %{}},
], %{}},
{"tr", [], [
{"td", [{"style", "text-align: left;"}], ["beta", {"em", [], ["gamma"], %{}}], %{}}
