Format reference

MD Format Hub

Markdown (.md) files implement a lightweight plain-text syntax for structural elements such as headings, lists, links, and code blocks. Widely adopted in documentation, README files, and static-site generation, Markdown balances readability with machine-processable markup. Use sample .md files to validate parser compliance with CommonMark or GitHub Flavored Markdown, test plugins (tables, task lists, footnotes), and ensure accurate conversion to HTML, PDF, or other formats.

Implementation Notes

Keep implementation notes explicit.

Use the manifest endpoint for deterministic fixture selection in CI, then validate MIME/type detection against actual parser output.

If this format appears in multiple categories, prefer category-specific hub pages to keep test assumptions aligned with real usage.
