Subject: Proposal: Use Markdown syntax for README and other documentation
Date: Wed, 18 May 2022 15:41:21 +0000	[thread overview]

Hello,

I have proposal to use markdown syntax for the README and other documentation in the project repo. Presently the files adhere to the minimal styling from alternate syntax<https://www.markdownguide.org/basic-syntax/#alternate-syntax> which mainly comprises of two levels of headings. Also there is no .md​ file extensions, which prevents markdown recognition by offline editors and Github.

As an initial step, I have separated out the list of backward incompatibilities to the file COMPATIBILITY and formatted the shorter README with markdown in this PR<https://github.com/zsh-users/zsh/pull/92>. You may have a look at the file, as rendered by Github here<https://github.com/bevsxyz/zsh#readme>. I think the efforts will enable the documentation to be more accessible and easy to navigate.

Let me know your thoughts on the matter!
