What is GitHub Flavored Markdown?

GitHub Flavored Markdown (GFM) is a superset of the CommonMark specification used by GitHub, GitLab, and many other platforms. It adds:

  • Tables — pipe-separated rows and columns
  • Task lists - [x] checkboxes
  • Strikethrough ~~text~~
  • Fenced code blocks — triple backtick with optional language identifier for syntax highlighting
  • Autolinks — URLs and email addresses are automatically linked

Where is Markdown used?

  • GitHub / GitLab README files and issues
  • Documentation sites (Docusaurus, MkDocs, GitBook)
  • Static site generators (Next.js MDX, Hugo, Jekyll)
  • Notion, Obsidian, and other note-taking apps
  • Slack, Discord, and other messaging platforms
  • Stack Overflow answers and comments
