Markdown Formatter

Tidy Markdown — normalise headings, lists, tables and emphasis markers.

To format Markdown, paste your document and heading spacing, list markers, emphasis characters and table alignment are all normalised. Tables are padded so the source is readable even before rendering, which matters for files reviewed in pull requests.
