Markdown Best Practices
- 1.Use consistent heading hierarchy: Don't skip heading levels. Go from H1 to H2 to H3 in order for better document structure and accessibility.
- 2.Add blank lines around blocks: Separate paragraphs, headings, lists, and code blocks with blank lines for better readability.
- 3.Use inline code for technical terms: Wrap commands, function names, and file paths in backticks (`code`) to distinguish them from regular text.
- 4.Keep line length reasonable: While Markdown supports long lines, keeping lines under 100 characters improves version control diffs and readability in text editors.
