Markdown flavors — what actually works

Markdown is the lingua franca of developer writing: READMEs, commit bodies, GitHub issues, docs sites, Obsidian notes, Notion pages, Substack, chat apps. It’s easy to write and hard to write well. Clean markdown renders consistently across platforms, diffs cleanly in git, and stays maintainable as it grows. Messy markdown breaks renderers, hides bugs in nested lists, and turns documents into git-diff nightmares. This guide covers the syntax (including the edge cases), flavor differences (CommonMark vs GFM vs others), style conventions, linting tools, and the patterns that separate readable markdown from the kind that works on your machine and nobody else’s.
