1. Markdown syntax in a nutshell
Markdown is a lightweight markup language: a handful of symbols β # heading, **bold**, _italic_, `inline code`, ```code block```, > quote, - list, [text](URL) link β produce a formatted document. Nearly every dev/collaboration tool (GitHub, Notion, Slack) supports Markdown or its GFM extension. Clicking a toolbar button in this editor wraps the selected text in the matching syntax.
