Markdown and Readability
Markdown stays readable as plain text while still rendering nicely on the web. That’s why it’s a good default for blog posts and docs.
Structure
Use headings to break up the page:
- H2 for main sections
- H3 for subsections
- Short paragraphs and lists for the rest
Lists don’t need to be long. Sometimes three items are enough:
- One idea per bullet.
- Keep sentences short.
- Prefer clarity over cleverness.
Code and emphasis
Use italics for emphasis and bold when you need it. For code, prefer `backticks` inline and fenced blocks for snippets:
Fenced blocks can use a language label
for syntax highlighting, or "text" for plain.
Horizontal rules separate big ideas:
More content follows. Full Markdown rendering means all of this—headings, lists, code, blockquotes—appears correctly on the blog page with minimal styling.
