How can plain text become headings and links?

00:00:06.000 --> 00:00:13.000
Markdown uses readable text notation that a compatible renderer turns into structured content.

00:00:13.000 --> 00:00:18.000
Check the source and the rendered result.
6 Markdown basics.

00:00:18.000 --> 00:00:30.000
Start with readable text
Write the content in a plain text file or Markdown editor.
Plain text · Readable source · Editable content

00:00:30.000 --> 00:00:42.000
Give headings a structure
Use the supported heading notation to organise the document.
Main heading · Section headings · Clear order

00:00:42.000 --> 00:00:54.000
Keep lists consistent
Use syntax supported by the renderer for related items and steps.
Related points · Numbered steps · Consistent spacing

00:00:54.000 --> 00:01:06.000
Check the link destination
Review both the visible label and the address it opens.
Useful label · Correct address · Working destination

00:01:06.000 --> 00:01:18.000
Know the supported flavour
