Markdown is a lightweight and human readable markup format for text formatting created by John Gruber and Aaron Swartz. It is similar to various forms of wiki markup.
There is no formal specification for the original Markdown, and it has ambiguities that are handled inconsistently by different implementations. Standard Markdown (released 2014-09) is an attempt to improve on this situation.
