Markdown Tricks for Cleaner Docs
I've written a lot of documentation over the years, and I've learned that Markdown is more powerful than most people give it credit for. Beyond the basics of headings, bold, and links, there are a few tricks that make my docs cleaner, more readable, and easier to maintain. Here are the ones I use constantly.
Use Tables Wisely
Tables are great for structured data, but they can get messy. The key is to keep them simple and align the pipes for readability, though you don't have to align them perfectly for Markdown to render. However, aligning them makes the source easier to scan. I also avoid using tables for complex layouts; they're best for comparisons or reference data.
