What is Markdown?

Markdown is a lightweight text format used by:

  • Developers — GitHub READMEs, documentation
  • Writers — blog posts, notes, books
  • Researchers — academic writing with Pandoc
  • Product teams — PRDs, specs, wikis
  • A simple `.md` file looks like: ``` # My Document Bold text, *italic*, and `inline code`.

    Section

  • Item 1
  • Item 2
  • ```

    And converts to a beautifully formatted PDF.
