If you use the Internet, you have surely come across the term Markdown. Markdown is a lightweight markup language that makes it very easy to write formatted content. It was created by John Gruber and Aaron Swartz in 2004. It uses very easy-to-remember syntax and is therefore used by many bloggers and content writers around the world. Even this blog that you are reading is written and formatted using Markdown.
Markdown is one of the most widely used formats for storing formatted data. It easily integrates with Web technologies, as it can be converted to HTML or vice versa using Markdown compilers. It allows you to write HTML entities, such as headings, lists, images, links, tables, and more without much effort or code. It is used in blogs, content management systems, Wikis, documentation, and many more places.
In this article, you'll learn how to work with Markdown in a Python application using different Python packages, including markdown, front matter, and markdownify.
