Summary

You can format text using Markdown, which is a simple way to make your writing more readable and visually appealing. You can use special characters such as asterisks, underscores, and brackets to add emphasis, create links, images, and quotes, and even mix and match different formatting options. Markdown is widely supported across various writing apps, including Google Docs, Word, and Notepad, and can be easily exported into rich text, HTML, or PDF formats. With Markdown, you can write in a plain text format, then add decoration later, making it an ideal choice for writers who want to focus on content rather than formatting.
