If you want to earn some geek cred but don’t have time to learn a programming language, start with Markdown! 🤓
I learned to use Markdown over ten years ago and I continue to be impressed by how powerful it is despite its relative simplicity.
While completing my master's in Health Informatics over the past two years, I wrote all my assignments, discussion posts, and research papers in Markdown (with an extra sprinkle of magic from Pandoc for citations). It's silly, but I’m sure it saved me hours by not fiddling with formatting in Word.
This short video from iA Writer (my favorite Markdown writing app) is a great demonstration of how you can format a document while writing without leaving your keyboard. And it has an almost ASMR vibe to it. 🧘🏻♂️
