I recently began using Obsidian (https://obsidian.md/), to organize my project spaces and the various bits of information about the project. It's open source and has a very very nice markdown editor, that provides an immediate preview. I've also recently read up on Docutils and Sphinx and it seems that they now also support markdown, in addition to reStructuredText.

I am curious if the library documentation generator, which I understand is based on Sphinx/Docutils, is also able to handle markdown text? Is it worth experimenting with or is it known to not work at all?

Thanks for any input you may have.
