Formats involved

DOCX

– Microsoft Office Open XML

DOCX is an XML based word processing file developed by Microsoft. DOCX files are different than DOC files as DOCX files store data in separate compressed files and folders. Earlier versions of Microsoft Office (earlier than Office 2007) do not support DOCX files because DOCX is XML based where the earlier versions save DOC file as a single binary file.

MD

– Markdown Documentation File

Markdown files are text plain text files which can contain text inline symbols for formating the text (e.g. titles, bold, tables). MD files are also often used by version control systems like GitHub (e.g. README.md).
