Markdown field type now available

Today's post is a short but sweet update to announce that you can now easily create and manage Markdown content using our new Markdown field type 🎉

Markdown is a lightweight markup language created in 2004 by John Gruber and Aaron Swartz. Its clean and simple nature makes it very easy to learn (even for non-technical folks) and also makes it very popular for managing content in a variety of different use cases such as documentation and statically generated websites.

How do I create a Markdown field?

It easy! When creating a field within a new or existing content type, simply select the new 'Markdown' option when choosing the type of your field (see screenshot below).

This will provide you with a handy WYSIWYG style Markdown editor which is suitable for both technical and non-technical users.
