What is Markdown?
Markdown is a lightweight markup language for creating formatted text using plain text syntax. Created in 2004 by John Gruber. Syntax: # for headers, ** for bold, * for italic, - for lists, ``` for code blocks. Readable as plain text, converts to HTML for rendering.
Example: "## Title" becomes <h2>Title</h2>. "**bold**" becomes <strong>bold</strong>. GitHub Flavored Markdown (GFM) adds tables, strikethrough, task lists, and auto-linking. This tool uses the marked library which follows CommonMark spec with GFM extensions.
Use cases: Converting README files to HTML, blog post authoring, documentation generation, email formatting, note-taking apps, static site generators, CMS content, and any workflow where you write in Markdown but need HTML output.
