 This is a set of templates for [pandoc](https://pandoc.org/) to enable that.

-  Markdown provides a straightforward way to create articles and documentation in a form where the underlying text is easily readable, while also facilitating the generation of various other formats. This includes \TeX\, HTML, docx, and PDF (via \TeX) files. This article and the associated code describe a template which can be used to write articles in Markdown and use the `pandoc` software to convert the markdown text into an \aastex-compatible tex file for submission to the AAS Journals. The advantage of this approach is ease of readability for the source files and flexibility in output formats. I note that this approach can be applied to \TeX\ submissions for other journals and only requires the creation of an appropriate \TeX\ template file and modification of the YAML header of this demonstration document.
