# Strikethrough Extension
_(Note: this extension is included by default within [the GFM extension](/1.x/extensions/github-flavored-markdown/))_
This extension adds support for GFM-style strikethrough syntax. It allows users to use `~~` in order to indicate text that should be rendered within `<del>` tags.
## Installation
This extension is bundled with `league/commonmark`. This library can be installed via Composer:
```bash
composer require league/commonmark
```
See the [installation](/1.x/installation/) section for more details.
## Usage
This extension can be added to any new `Environment`:
```php
use League\CommonMark\Environment;
use League\CommonMark\Extension\Strikethrough\StrikethroughExtension;
use League\CommonMark\MarkdownConverter;
// Obtain a pre-configured Environment with all the CommonMark parsers/renderers ready-to-go
$environment = Environment::createCommonMarkEnvironment();
// Add this extension
$environment->addExtension(new StrikethroughExtension());
// Instantiate the converter engine and start converting some Markdown!
$converter = new MarkdownConverter($environment);
echo $converter->convertToHtml('This extension is ~~really good~~ great!');
```
