## About the Book

### Teaser Text

To celebrate Markdown Mode's 10th birthday, this comprehensive Guide from the package author and maintainer covers everything from the basics to advanced editing commands, customization, interactions with other packages, and useful tips and tricks to make writing and publishing with Markdown more enjoyable and efficient.

### Summary

The *Guide to Markdown Mode for Emacs* is a complete reference for the [`markdown-mode`](https://jblevins.org/projects/markdown-mode/) package for users of all levels. The book supplements the online documentation by providing more details about installation, configuration, and movement and editing commands. There are examples throughout that show the *Emacs way* of editing as it relates to Markdown. Additionally, the book covers more advanced usage such as subtree and structure editing, defun and page movement, marking, narrowing, region management, imenu, etc. It goes beyond the basic documentation by also discussing interaction with other packages such as Flyspell mode, CriticMarkup mode, Pandoc mode, Deft, HTML as Markdown mode, MathJax, and more. Finally, it also contains tips and tricks for custom configuration options such as custom CSS stylesheets, using pre- and post-processors, customizing faces, keeping notes in a local wiki, etc.
