the .3md format

3md.

Markdown, but with a third axis you name yourself.

time, frames, layers, depth, space, slides, floors: same file, you choose what Z means.

The whole spec fits on a napkin.
 
 

Know Markdown? You know 3md. A version line is the magic marker, an axis
names what depth means, and @plane directives slice the document along Z.
          Everything between directives is ordinary Markdown. Every view above is parsed by a
          faithful JavaScript port of the Swift ThreeMD parser, running on this page.
