From 363eb059966d0be0a41c206cee40dfd21eb73251 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Nathan Bossart Date: Wed, 28 Feb 2024 14:53:52 -0600 Subject: Convert README to Markdown. This is a first step toward modernizing our README file. Some popular developer platforms support rendering README.md files, so a direct conversion to Markdown seems like a good place to start. The intent is to keep this file legible as plain text even as it accumulates more content.
