Description
reStructuredText, or RST, is a lightweight markup language commonly used for technical documentation and publishing, especially in Python projects. Files with the .rst extension support straightforward syntax for creating structured documents, including headings, lists, tables, and hyperlinks. It is widely adopted in Sphinx, a popular documentation generator, to produce high-quality HTML, LaTeX, and PDF outputs. The .rst format's readability and integration with version control systems make it a favorite among developers and writers.
