Format Details
HTML
HTML (HyperText Markup Language) is the standard markup language for creating web pages and web applications, maintained by the W3C. It defines the structure and content of documents using elements and tags, working alongside CSS for visual styling and JavaScript for interactivity. HTML is rendered by web browsers into the visual pages users see, and is the universal output format for documents published on the internet.
RST
reStructuredText (RST) is a plain-text markup language widely used for technical documentation in the Python programming ecosystem. It is the default documentation format for Python projects and the native input format for the Sphinx documentation generator, which produces HTML, PDF, ePub, and man pages. RST supports complex cross-references, footnotes, directives, and extensions, making it well-suited for large, structured documentation projects.
