So is Markdown a programming language? Any logic for html, is therefore Markdown as well.

sure, it's a dsl for generating formatted output

  • If we trim markdown to just italic, bold, and underline, is it still a programming language?

    What if we trim even further, to just the ASCII control codes? My newline characters make the computer perform a special action to generate formatted output. Is that programming?
