Markdown is a lightweight markup language that represents document structure with conventions that remain readable in plain text, and it is used to write documents whose source stays legible to a person. A parser turns those conventions into a structured document or HTML. Extensions add expressive power, but their meaning then depends on the compiler that understands them.

A parser turns those conventions into a structured document or HTML. Extensions add expressive power, but their meaning then depends on the compiler that understands them.

In this site, source articles combine Markdown with explicit syntax for equations, concept links and editorial blocks. The compiler defines that local contract; portability requires preserving either the source syntax or a deliberate export of its meaning.
