Markdown keeps your content neat and easy to read. Try it out and see how much it can simplify your TYPO3 editing!
 

Markdown is a simple markup language with which texts can be formatted quickly without writing HTML. A hash creates a heading, asterisks mark emphasis and hyphens form lists. The text stays easy to read even without conversion.

In the TYPO3 environment Markdown is mainly used for documentation. README files in repositories, guides for extensions and knowledge bases are often written in Markdown. On platforms such as GitHub they are displayed automatically as formatted pages.

The advantage: Markdown files can be compared well in version control because they are plain text. Several authors can write together, trace changes and review texts. HTML, PDF or other formats can be generated from one file.

For web pages Markdown can be converted to HTML via extensions or libraries. Check how clean the output is and whether headings, lists and tables appear semantically correct. This is important for accessibility and SEO.

Note that there are several dialects. Functions such as tables or strikethrough are not the same everywhere. Decide which variant your team uses and record rules in a short style guide.

Editors without technical experience usually work more comfortably in the rich text editor. Markdown is better suited to developer teams and technical documentation.

Alternative texts for images belong here too so that content remains accessible.

Use templates for recurring documents so that structure and quality stay constant.

Check links in documents regularly because addresses change.
