I'm quite happy with Markdown. It powers the website I live from. I like that it's human-readable, supported by so many editors, and generally easy to work with.

I have made a few extensions to make my life easier:

- Constants like {{ current_year}} to set things in one place and repeat them in multiple places

- Custom elements like {% tableOfContents %}. I just use Jinja inside markdown.

That has served me well for 5 years or so.
