To be specific, compared to regular Markdown GitHub-flavored Markdown 
adds support for tables, task list items, strikethrough, bare URLs as 
autolinks and disallows some raw HTML. Of the above, Ddoc "markdown" 
supports tables and bare autolinks but not task list items or 
strikethrough. Compared to regular Markdown, Ddoc doesn't support 
underscores for emphasis (just asterisks), underline style headings, nor 
indented code blocks (just fenced code blocks).
