What is Markdown?
Markdown is a lightweight markup language with plain-text formatting syntax. It allows you to write using an easy-to-read, easy-to-write plain text format, which then converts to structurally valid HTML for the web.
Unlike traditional word processors, Markdown keeps you focused on your content rather than menus and formatting buttons.
Common Use Cases
- README Files: The standard for documenting GitHub projects like emeraldcodestudios.com.
- Technical Logs: Keeping track of server updates or project development milestones.
- Content Creation: Writing blog posts or website copy that needs to be converted to HTML.
- Notes & Documentation: Creating structured, platform-independent notes that work everywhere.
Pro Tips
- Line Breaks: Add two spaces at the end of a line for a simple carriage return.
- Horizontal Rules: Type
---on a new line to create a divider. - Images: Use
to embed visuals.
