About the formats

What is XLSX?

XLSX (Excel Open XML) is the standard spreadsheet format from Microsoft Excel, also supported by Google Sheets and LibreOffice Calc. Data is organised into cells and sheets, with support for formulas, functions, charts and formatting. Because the file is a ZIP container of XML, its content stays readable and easy to process.

Use XLSX for tabular data that needs structure and calculation, budgets, inventories, lists and anything with formulas or multiple sheets. When you only need the raw data, you can export a single sheet to CSV or JSON here.

What is Markdown?

Markdown is a lightweight markup language that lets you write formatted documents in plain text using simple symbols. The same file reads clearly as text and renders as styled HTML, making it popular for documentation, README files and notes. It is also widely used to feed clean text to large language models.

Use Markdown for content that should be readable as plain text but publishable with formatting, README files, documentation, wikis, notes and posts. Write it anywhere, and it stays usable forever because the source is plain text.
