## What is Markdown
|
||||
|
||||
The [wikipedia markdown entry](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Markdown) introduced markdown as :
|
||||
|
||||
> Markdown is a lightweight markup language with plain text formatting syntax. It is designed so that it can be converted to HTML and many other formats using a tool by the same name. Markdown is often used to format readme files, for writing messages in online discussion forums, and to create rich text using a plain text editor. As the initial description of Markdown contained ambiguities and unanswered questions, many implementations and extensions of Markdown appeared over the years to answer these issues.

## Markdown in Deck
|
||||
The Deck application plugin uses the [markdown-it](https://github.com/markdown-it/markdown-it) script to offer support for markdown in the cards description field.
|
||||
|
||||
## Supported Markdown
|
||||
|
||||
Markdown comes in may flavors. The best way to learn markdown and understand how to use it, is simply to [try it](https://markdown-it.github.io) on the original script official playground.
|
||||
That same link offers also a comprehensive list of what is supported, and what is not - rendering it unnecessary to duplicate that content in here.

## Known Issues
|
||||
|
||||
As per [issue #127](https://github.com/nextcloud/deck/issues/127) Due to a known limitation of the current script to support markdown, Links that contain the `")"` character will not display well, or will break.
|
||||
The recommended solution is to use `"<"` and `">"` to wrap those links. It should assure their integrity.
|
||||
If you come by another case of broken link, or broken display of links, please report it by opening a new issue.
