Markdown is a markup language commonly used to simplify the process of writing content in an easy-to-read text format, which a software tool or programming library can convert into HTML to display in a browser or another writing program. Because it uses plain-text syntax, Markdown is compatible with any text editor and can convert headings, lists, links, and other components. Bloggers, tutorial authors, and documentation writers use Markdown widely and websites, such as Github, StackOverflow, and The Python Package Index (PyPI), support it.

You can learn how to use Markdown from the Markdown syntax standard. Alternatively, you can also try a different Markdown implementation in a web editor, like the DigitalOcean Markdown Preview or the StackEdit editor.
