A **Sprint Review (Demo)** provides the platform for the Scrum Team to showcase what they accomplished during the sprint while creating the opportunity for key stakeholders to [inspect the increment and adapt the Product Backlog](https://www.scrum.org/resources/what-is-a-sprint-review), if necessary.

MD013 - Line length
Tags: line_length
Aliases: line-length Parameters: linelength, codeblocks, tables (number; default 80, boolean; default true)
This rule is triggered when there are lines that are longer than the configured line length (default: 80 characters). To fix this, split the line up into multiple lines.
This rule has an exception where there is no whitespace beyond the configured line length. This allows you to still include items such as long URLs without being forced to break them in the middle.
You also have the option to exclude this rule for code blocks and tables. To
do this, set the code_blocks
and/or tables
parameters to false.
Code blocks are included in this rule by default since it is often a requirement for document readability, and tentatively compatible with code rules. Still, some languages do not lend themselves to short lines.

The Sprint Review (Demo) is **not** a status meeting - it is an opportunity to elicit feedback and foster [collaboration](https://www.scrum.org/resources/what-is-a-sprint-review) between the Product Owner, Scrum Team, and stakeholders and identify the next incremental effort that can be done to optimize business value. It is recommended the meeting be timeboxed to **_one hour per week of Sprint length_** (i.e. two week sprint is a maximum 2-hour Sprint Review) and to focus on acceptance criteria that meets the team’s [Definition of Done (DoD)]({{ site.baseurl }}/guides/glossary/#definition-of-done). If a demonstration of functionality is required, it should center around a realistic user experience that displays the product / prototype and how the user will interact with its features, not the system source code or logic.

The best way for the Product Owner to summarize which items are accepted and considered "done," demonstrate features completed, and review the team’s commitments, is to use a presentation-style format. Sprint Review presentations can be stored in an accessible team folder and provide a convenient, informative summation for stakeholders who are unable to attend the review. The Product Owner, or team member presenting, should always prepare and practice before the meeting. While the Scrum Master should ensure the reviews for the upcoming few sprints are scheduled ahead of time to enable stakeholders to plan their attendance.

MD002 - First header should be a top level header
Tags: headers
Aliases: first-header-h1
Parameters: level (number; default 1)
This rule is triggered when the first header in the document isn't a h1 header:
## This isn't a H1 header
### Another header
The first header in the document should be a h1 header:
# Start with a H1 header
## Then use a H2 for subsections
Headers should be surrounded by blank lines Open

MD022 - Headers should be surrounded by blank lines
Tags: headers, blank_lines
Aliases: blanks-around-headers
This rule is triggered when headers (any style) are either not preceded or not followed by a blank line:
# Header 1
Some text
Some more text
## Header 2
To fix this, ensure that all headers have a blank line both before and after (except where the header is at the beginning or end of the document):
# Header 1
Some text
Some more text
## Header 2
Rationale: Aside from aesthetic reasons, some parsers, including kramdown, will not parse headers that don't have a blank line before, and will parse them as regular text.
