Hello guys.

    I'm confused with markdown files. Essentially I'm concerned with
README.md like one can find in any git store, like git.devuan.org.

    1) If I write a file in the Markdown format, my browser doesn't
know how to display it.

    2) If I point my browser to the same file through a server at
localhost, it still can't display it.

    3) If I point the same browser to some README.md file in the git
store, now it can display it.

    4) If I look at the content of the README.md file, it is just plain
HTML!

    Is somebody lying, or is there some mechanism in the servers which
convert md to html, or what else?

    Thanks if one can explain.
