Why Convert TXT to Markdown?

Converting plain text to Markdown lets you add semantic formatting such as headings, lists, links, and code blocks with minimal syntax. Markdown files remain readable in raw form and can be easily transformed into HTML, PDF, and other formats using simple converters. This makes it ideal for documentation, README files, and content that requires both readability and formatting.

Additionally, Markdown is supported by most code hosting platforms and static site generators, enabling seamless integration with development workflows. By converting TXT to Markdown, you leverage a universal format that enhances collaboration and content management across diverse platforms.
