Markdown

Most podcasting apps allow HTML-formatted descriptions: italic and bold text, lists, hyperlinks, etc. Markdown enables to do that using just plain text. For example, it can render *italic* as italic.

It is important to note that not all podcast players will support all types of text formatting. Podnews has a great article on which features are supported on which major podcast players (Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and Google Podcasts).

Text

Text can be *italic*, **bold**, or ***both***!

To create paragraphs, leave at least one empty line in-between.
Otherwise, the lines next to each other will be combined together.  
To start a new line (instead of entirely new paragraph), insert two spaces at the end of the preceding line.

Links

Enclosing a URL or an email address in pointy brackets (e.g. <https://www.example.com> or <saul@example.com>) will convert it to a link. For URLs, do not forget to include the protocol (usually https://): <www.example.com> won't work.

You can also have [custom text](https://www.example.com) for your links!

Lists

We can have numbered lists:

1. First
2. Second

Or unnumbered lists:

* First item
* Second item (with a nested list created by putting two spaces in front):
  * First sub-item
  * Second sub-item
* Third item

Code

We can include inline code using a pair of backticks: `idx := 0`.

Multiline code is possible with a pair of triple backticks:
```
idx := 0
fmt.Println(idx)
```
