Introduction and Background
Posted on:Based on
Jeffs blog a post by Jeff Atwood, where he introduces his ideas for standardizing Markdown for the future.
Quote I don’t want to extend Markdown by adding tons of crazy new functionality, or radically change the way it currently works, or anything like that. I’d be opposed to such changes. I just want to solidify and standardize the simple, useful version of Markdown that is working so well for everyone right now. I want there to be an unambiguous, basic standard that everyone using Markdown can expect to work in the same way across all web sites in the world when they begin typing.
