Also known as rST, ReST, reST, .rst

reStructuredText (RST, ReST, or reST) is a plain-text markup language primarily used for technical documentation and other textual data. It serves a similar role as Markdown but includes additional semantic features for more complex document structuring. Prominent, large-scale, open-source projects that rely on reStructuredText include the Python programming language community for its official documentation, the Linux kernel docs, CMake, and the LLVM compiler project.

reStructuredText(RST、ReST或reST)是一种用于文本数据的文件格式,主要用于 Python 编程语言社区的技术文档。 它是Python Doc-SIG(Documentation Special Interest Group)的 Docutils 项目的一部分,旨在为 Python 创建一组类似于 Java 的 Javadoc 或 Perl 的 Plain Old Documentation(pod)的工具。Docutils 可以从 Python 程序中提取注释和信息,并将它们格式化为各种形式的程序文档。 从这个意义上说,reStructuredText 是一种轻量级标记语言,其设计目的是(a)文档处理软件(如Docutils)可以处理它,(b)读和写 Python 源代码的程序员很容易读它。
