What Is Markdown?
Markdown is a lightweight markup language created by John Gruber in 2004. It lets you write formatted text using plain-text syntax — headings start with #, bold text uses**asterisks**, and links use [text](url). Markdown is the standard format for GitHub READMEs, documentation sites, blogs, and technical writing. GitHub Flavored Markdown (GFM) adds tables, task lists, and strikethrough on top of the original specification.
