Markdown is a plain text formatting system originally developed by John Gruber. It has since been standardized into CommonMark, which is what Silver Bullet uses (with some extensions).

Specifically, Silver Bullet supports the following extensions to common mark:

• Frontmatter
• Double-bracketed wiki links: [[link to page]], optionally with aliases [[link to page|alias]].
• Hashtags, e.g. #mytag.
• Command link syntax: {[Stats: Show]} rendered into a clickable button {[Stats: Show]}.
• Tables
• Fenced code blocks
• Task lists
• Highlight
• Automatic URL linking
• Custom markdown extensions provided by plugs
