Markdown

Markdown is a terse markup language that produces HTML.

Style

• Prefer footnotes to inline links

  // bad
  Sweet [link](http://linkzilla.biz) coming.
  
  // good
  Sweet [link][link] coming.
  
  [link]: http://linkzilla.biz
  
  // also good
  Sweet [link][] coming.
  
  [link]: http://linkzilla.biz

• Use hash marks for consistent header markup

  // bad
  This is an inconsistent H1
  =================
  
  ## Check Out My H2
  
  ### Inconsistent H3
  
  // good
  
  # This is still a big, friendly H1
  
  ## Check Out My H2
  
  ### My H3 looks like everything else now
