# Markdown-for-Documentation
```
GitHub Readme used for documentation also used .md (markdown) files for documentation.
Note, for all webpages containing any number of md files, GitHub only renders the README.md file on current page if present.
```
**Note**
```
Markdown files can include language code as both are compatible.
