Tips and tricks for more formatting options in GitHub Markdown

Advanced Formatting in GitHub Markdown

GitHub Flavored Markdown lets you create useful documents in GitHub and GitHub Enterprise using .md files. Like other varieties of markdown, GitHub Markdown tries to be as readable as possible in its raw form, resulting in an intentionally limited set of formatting options. However, these options can feel restrictive when dealing with complex content.

Although GitHub Markdown strips out most HTML tags, here are a few tricks that can give you more flexibility when formatting your documents. These advanced formatting options can make your documents more useable, but they come at the expense of plain text readability, so use with caution.

How to publish Python apps for human beings

How to publish Python apps for human beings

So, you've created a Python app (be it a graphical user interface with Qt or the like, or a simple command line interface). Great! But how are others going to use it? Python applications often have dependencies (e.g. from third-party modules), and they also need a Python interpreter to run them. For a developer, installing all the necessary bits and bobs to make things work is okay, but that's unacceptable for a normal user - they just want to download the thing and run it.

Below are simple instructions to publish your app on the three main operating systems: Windows, macOS and Linux.
