[Software tools] (1) How to open and use markdown

Introduction

Recently, CSDN supports Markdown syntax for blogging, and I am very happy. I wrote an experiment a few days ago, and it feels good. I'm going to write a few articles to introduce how to use CSDN's Markdown editor to write a blog, not to be comprehensive, but to be sufficient. I hope everyone can criticize and correct me.

This article will introduce the following points:

  • What is Markdown
  • How to blog on CSDN using Markdown
  • How to write Markdown text offline

What is Markdown

Markdown can be considered as a text language with a little grammar. You only need to add basic grammar symbols to your own text to generate a rich-format web interface.

Our purpose is to use Markdown to write blogs, so we won't ask about the past and present of Markdown, we just need to know one thing: Markdown can make blogging easier and faster! .

Why does Markdown make blogging easier for us? because:

  1. Blogs can be edited entirely in text, without the use of a mouse. For example, we set the title. In the old CSDN blog editor, we can only click on the title with the mouse. Now we don't need it. We only need to follow the simple syntax of Markdown to do this.
  2. Fonts, tables, links, pictures, formulas, codes, etc., these things that can help us better express our ideas, are very convenient to use in Markdown. Before everyone wrote a blog with formulas, it was quite difficult! You need to post your own pictures! With Markdown, you don't have to do this. You can directly input LaTex formulas, which is convenient and beautiful.

I only wrote two points, but this is enough to make me unable to hold back my excitement, so hurry up and experience it!


How to blog on CSDN using Markdown

Step-by-step instructions:

"This description is silly, but very intuitive!" - bendanban

Step 1: Log in to CSDN

I believe that no one will be stuck in this step. Generally, people who know how to use browsers will do this step. Don't be verbose, see the next step!

Step 2: Write a New Blog

After logging in to CSDN, there is an icon similar to the style of paper and pen on the top right side of the page, click it, and operate as shown below:

start blogging

Or open this URL directly: http://write.blog.csdn.net/mdeditor

Step 3: Switch to the Markdown editor

If you see a prompt to switch to the Markdown editor on the page for editing a blog post, don't hesitate to click on it!

Step 4: Write it on the page that appears

If you are writing a blog for the first time, enter the Markdown editor of CSDN, you will see the prompt box made by CSDN, look at those prompts, don't rush to the next step.

If you've already opened a page in the Markdown editor and blogged with it, you won't see what you saw the first time, they've been washed out by your first Markdown blog post.

what the editor looks like

As shown in the figure above, the area ① is the toolbar, the area ② is our editing area, and the area ③ is the display area. We write text that conforms to Markdown syntax in the ② area, and the online editor shows us the effect in the ③ area.


Blogging Offline with Markdown

Because a blog that conforms to Markdown syntax is in plain text, we can use any text editor to edit it, so we can write the blog content offline, copy it directly after writing, and paste it into CSDN's Markdown online editor, Fill in a topic and click on "Post a Blog" and that's it.

CSDN's Markdown online editor provides two buttons for import and export in the toolbar. You can also try using these two buttons. A word of caution: text uploaded locally will wash out what you wrote online!


Summarize

This article is just an introduction, and I will continue to write some specific operations later.
