Knut Melvær | Markdown's biggest hater
Manage episode 481724011 series 3645004
Developers love writing Markdown, everyone else? Not so much. There's an opportunity cost to storing rich text and block content as a string. It ties content to presentation in a way that's unpleasant to write and brittle to render. Knut joins the podcast to discuss when and where Markdown is acceptable and what makes Portable Text the preferred alternative.
