plexy-markdown

Tight Markdown scans fast and diffs clean. Put one idea per line; nest the rest.

The format

• One statement per bullet.
  • A statement is a single claim, step, fact, or rule.
  • If a bullet joins two ideas with "and", "then", "which", or a dash, split it.
• Sub-statements become sub-bullets.
  • Nest to show structure: the parent names the thing, children describe it.
  • Two or three levels is plenty; deeper means the structure is wrong.
• Keep every line under 120 characters.
  • The cap is a readability budget, not a formatting rule.
  • Break at clause boundaries into sub-bullets before wrapping a line.
• Be concise.
  • Cut words that don't change meaning (very, really, in order to, it should be noted).
  • Drop filler headings and empty transitions.
