What is Markdown?
Markdown is a lightweight markup language created by John Gruber in 2004. It lets you format text using simple symbols like # for headings, * for emphasis, and [ ] for links. The goal is to create readable plain text that converts cleanly to HTML.
Basic Markdown Syntax
- Headings use # symbols (# H1, ## H2, ### H3)
- Bold text uses **double asterisks** or __double underscores__
- Italic text uses *single asterisks* or _single underscores_
- Links use [text](url) format
- Lists use - or * for bullets, 1. 2. 3. for numbered lists
- Code uses `backticks` for inline, triple backticks for blocks
- Blockquotes use > at the start of a line
Common Uses for Markdown
- README files for GitHub repositories and open source projects
- Technical documentation and API guides
- Blog posts and content management systems like Jekyll or Hugo
- Personal notes and knowledge bases like Obsidian or Notion
