All about README.md file markup

Where did the term "README" come from? (Etymology)

Important information that the user should read before continuing, project descriptions on GitHub in the language
markdown markup is placed in the file "README.md"

The term dates back to at least the 1970s, the time when informational paper notes were placed on stacks.
punched cards "READ ME!" scribbled on them describing their use. Possibly titled README
could be a playful nudge to Lewis Carroll's Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, which has a potion and cake with
labeled "DRINK ME" and "EAT ME" respectively.

The README pattern displayed in capital letters is a consistent aspect throughout history.
In addition to the visual expressiveness of using capital letters, UNIX systems sort capital letters before
in lowercase letters, conveniently placing README before the rest of the contents of the directory.

The above examples will not be able to keep the indentation of complex text on each line, for this purpose use in
three backticks "```", and they must be on separate lines before and after the text, respectively.

"Strive not for success, but for the values that it gives."
                                          Albert Einstein

If you only use a pair of backticks, then your text will be highlighted, but not indented. Same way
you can highlight individual words in the text.
