About this file format

.md (Markdown) is a lightweight markup language created by John Gruber in 2004. It uses plain-text syntax (like # for headings, - for lists, ``` for code blocks) that converts to structured HTML. Markdown is the standard format for README files on GitHub, documentation sites, static-site generators, and note-taking apps. Variants like GitHub-Flavored Markdown (GFM) and CommonMark add tables, task lists, and other extensions.
