Move from asciidoc to Markdown #6023

Open bezirg opened 1 month ago

bezirg commented 1 month ago

We use some asciidoc in the repo, let's get rid of it

Unisay commented 1 month ago

I don't know why it was decided before me that ASCIIDoc is a thing to use, I assume there were reasons. (I'd prefer to learn about them from an ADR, but I couldn't find one, probably there isn't, unfortunately)

Its also fair to assume that one alternative is not universally better than another (otherwise we wouldn't have this choice?), so there must be aspects that are better in ASCIIDoc than in Markdown.

The task description is very quick, it doesn't let me answer the main question "Why?".

@Unisay Checking now our discussion, the reason is that AsciiDoc does not render properly in Github. Specifically the links were/are broken.
