Markdown
Markdown is a simple markup language that adds formatting to plain text.
Many professionals prefer Markdown because it is comprehensive, easy to use, and does not require specialized tools.
To italicize text, use a single asterisk. For bold, use two asterisks. For both bold and italic, use three asterisks.
To create a header, start the line with a hash. For subheaders, use two hashes. Additional hashes create deeper header levels.
Because Markdown does not require specialized software, you can easily transfer your work between different tools.
Many platforms support Markdown.
