# Project language file 1

## For seanpm2001:DeGoogle-your-Life/Why-you-should-stop-using-Google-Shopping

I chose Markdown as the first project language file for this project (seanpm2001:DeGoogle-your-Life/Why-you-should-stop-using-Google-Shopping) as this project is just documentation and an article set on DeGoogling from the usage of the Google Search engine and its associated Google Shopping service. It is getting its own project language file, starting here.

This is an instance in which I am using Markdown as a project language file, as I learned how to make the GitHub linguist recognize Markdown as a language. I found this out when snooping around on [Apple/Swift Evolution](https://github.com/apple/swift-evolution/blob/main/.gitattributes) if you want to do this yourself, simply add this to your `.gitattributes` file (if you haven't created one yet, make it now, do not add anything else to the file name but `.gitattributes`)

```gitattributes
*.md linguist-detectable=true
*.md linguist-documentation=false
*.md linguist-language=Markdown
```

Advanced version:

```gitattributes
# Markdown (*.md, *.mkd, *.mdown, *.markdown)
*.md linguist-detectable=true
*.md linguist-documentation=false
*.md linguist-language=Markdown
*.mkd linguist-detectable=true
*.mkd linguist-documentation=false
*.mkd linguist-language=Markdown
*.mdown linguist-detectable=true
*.mdown linguist-documentation=false
*.mdown linguist-language=Markdown
*.markdown linguist-detectable=true
*.markdown linguist-documentation=false
*.markdown linguist-language=Markdown
```
