What is the markdown syntax for templating

[Cengiz Ilerler]

I have a .NET Core template and wondering how I can hide partial content from markdown file based on the flags set?

As you may see below I tried what I do in CS project files but it didn't work.

README.md

# Steps

- createSolutionFile.ps1

<!--#if (CacheSqlServer)-->
- sql-cache.ps1
    1. create database `DistributedCache`
    2. create schema `cache`
    3. run the script
<!-- #endif -->

- user-secrets.ps1

<!--#if (EntityFramework)-->
- scaffold.ps1
- migrate.ps1 
<!-- #endif -->

- build.ps1

<!--#if (WindowsService)-->
- windows-service.ps1
<!-- #endif -->

Based on answer @poke provided in StackOverflow adding code below into template.json solves the issue.

"SpecialCustomOperations": {
  "**/*.md": {
    "operations": [
      {
        "type": "conditional",
        "configuration": {
            "if": ["<!--#if"],
            "else": ["<!--#else"],
            "elseif": ["<!--#elseif", "<!--#elif"],
            "endif": ["<!--#endif"],
            "trim": "true",
            "wholeLine": "true"
        }
      }
    ]
  }
}
