- Description
- An MD file is a text file created using one of several possible dialects of the Markdown language. It is saved in plain text format but includes inline text symbols that define how to format the text (e.g., bold, indentations, headers, table formatting). MD files are designed for authoring plain text documentation that can be easily converted to HTML.
- Textile is a lightweight markup language that uses simple text formatting conventions to generate structured HTML. It is commonly used in content management systems, wikis, and forums for writing formatted text without directly using HTML tags. Files with the .textile extension contain plain text written using this markup syntax.
