As mentioned here  markdown do not support right aligned text or blocks  But the HTML result does it  via Cascading Style Sheets  CSS    On my Jekyll Blog is use a syntax which works in markdown as well  To  terminate  a block use two spaces at the end or two times new line    Of course you can also add a css-class with     right   instead of    style  text-align  right      Text to right     style  text-align  right    This text is on the right   Text as block     style  text-align  justify    This text is a block

Specific to your usage of a Jupyter Notebook  the ability to specify table column alignment should return in a future release   Current releases default to right-aligned everywhere     From PR  4130      Allow markdown tables to specify their alignment with the  --   --   --  syntax while still allowing --- to default to right alignment       This reverts a previous change  part of  2534  that stripped the alignment information from the rendered HTML coming out of the marked renderer  To be clear this does not change the right alignment default but does bring back support for overriding this alignment per column by using the gfm table alignment syntax
