Markdown is a lightweight markup language based on the formatting conventions that people naturally use in email. AsJohn Gruberwrites on theMarkdown site
The overriding design goal for Markdown’s formatting syntax is to make it as readable as possible. The idea is that a Markdown-formatted document should be publishable as-is, as plain text, without looking like it’s been marked up with tags or formatting instructions.
This text you see here isactuallywritten in Markdown! To get a feel for Markdown’s syntax, type some text into the left window and watch the results in the right.

Docker
Dillinger is very easy to install and deploy in a Docker container.
By default, the Docker will expose port 80, so change this within the Dockerfile if necessary. When ready, simply use the Dockerfile to build the image.
cddillingerdocker build -t /dillinger:latest .
This will create the dillinger image and pull in the necessary dependencies. Once done, run the Docker and map the port to whatever you wish on your host. In this example, we simply map port 80 of the host to port 80 of the Docker (or whatever port was exposed in the Dockerfile):
docker run-d-p80:80--restart="always"/dillinger:latest
Verify the deployment by navigating to your server address in your preferred browser.
