Markdown is a lightweight markup language designed for easy reading and writing of formatted text. It is widely used for blogging, documentation, and readme files. LingoHub supports Markdown localization while preserving the structure and special elements of the format.

Format

• The file extension is .md.
• LingoHub divides the content into segments based on paragraphs.
• Headers, lists, code blocks, and indented blocks are each parsed as a single segment.
• Frontmatter metadata is preserved during import and export.

Example
