Markdown is a special plain text formatting language that is extremely popular among developers. It is used in documents, research articles, Github README files, and other things. In this project, you will write an editor that will be able to recognize several tags, structures, and save your results to a file. You will practice concepts frequently tested in technical interviews at top tech companies.

I learned quite a bit about formatting and text maniputlation in python. Also how to format files for output into your system. Some parts were a bit vague and frustrating, but overall a satisfying project to complete.

A good project to train the use of functions, how to divide the project with some condition and loop. A very good basic training.
