Almost all text on GitHub is processed through a markup language called Markdown — it's an easy way to include simple formatting (like italics, bold words, lists, and links). This guide will show you the ins-and-outs of Markdown on GitHub. Several tools are available for creating documentation in Markdown. If you use GitHub as a repository, you can add Markdown files in two ways:. For any directory in GitHub, create a Markdown file called README.md. GitHub automatically converts this file to HTML and displays it underneath the listing of files in the directory.
The GitHub Jobs API allows you to search, and view jobs with JSON over HTTP.

For example, when searching for Python jobs near New York on the site I am taken to this url:
To get the JSON representation of those jobs I just use positions.json:
Pagination
The API also supports pagination. /positions.json, for example, will only return 50 positions at a time. You can paginate results by adding a page parameter to your queries.
Github Markdown Api Examples
Pagination starts by default at 0.
Examples
GET /positions.json

Introduction
The Markdown Guide API provides a subset of documentation from the Markdown Guide in JSON format. We hope that software developers and organizations use this API to programmatically consume our documentation and display it in applications and on websites.
Why?
Why create an API for Markdown documentation? Because there’s so much duplicated Markdown documentation on the web! It seems like everybody has their own version of Markdown documentation for their application or website. That’s a shame since most of it is exactly the same.
Python In Markdown
Then came the epiphany. 💡 We realized we could create a JSON API using documentation from the Markdown Guide. That way, software developers could start using the API to include our documentation in their applications, and organizations like universities and libraries could use the API to include our documentation on their websites.
We’d love to see the Markdown Guide become the central documentation repository for the thousands of Markdown instructions sprinkled around the internet. Will it work? Who knows! One thing’s for sure though: We can’t wait to see what you do with it. 🤘
Limitations
The Markdown Guide API is designed to provide only essential Markdown documentation. As a result, the API doesn’t include all of the documentation available on the Markdown Guide website. For example, the Adding Elements in Lists section is not available through the basic syntax endpoint.
Basic Syntax Endpoint
The basic syntax endpoint contains documentation about the Markdown elements outlined in John Gruber’s design document and described on the Basic Syntax page.
