Last Update May 2018
I’ve been a long time user of Markdown now and still enjoy its simplicity. So i thought it is time to rewrite the collection and add some more information.
What is Markdown?
Markdown is an easy to use markup language and is written in a plain text format. Writing in it feels very natural and with the tools around it you got a powerful helper, like a tiny wizard in your pocket :-). The main benefits are
natural writing, it looks and feels like plain text, here is an example
the text content is separated from the actual presentation, which simplifies the presentation of your work in different formats, i.e., transform it to HTML, Word, PDF, LaTeX, and more
As I said it is plain text, and basically you could write it with any text editor on any platform. I write it on a Mac, my colleague can change it on Windows. And all with the simplest plain text editors. But when you want to transform it into HTML, you can use one of the many command line tools or an editor. And same of the editors I’ll present you now.
