Format Details
DOCX
DOCX is the default file format for Microsoft Word documents since Office 2007, built on the Open XML standard developed by Microsoft and standardized by ISO. It stores document content, formatting, images, tables, and metadata in a compressed ZIP archive containing XML files. DOCX is the dominant word processing format worldwide, supported by Microsoft Word, Google Docs, LibreOffice, and virtually all modern office software.
Markdown
Markdown is a lightweight plain-text markup language created by John Gruber in 2004 to make writing formatted content for the web as easy as possible. It uses minimal punctuation-based syntax to define headings, emphasis, links, images, lists, and code blocks that convert cleanly to HTML. Markdown is the dominant format for README files, software documentation, technical blogs, and static site generators across the entire software industry.
