In the context of a book, yes. But I mean in the context of an online Markdown editor. (Or even a Markdown editor at all. Can you actually write books in Markdown?)

Rust book is written in Md https://github.com/rust-lang/book as well as plenty other books that I can't remember from the back of my head.

Yes, you can. The "Programming Perl" book by Larry Wall was famously written entirely in "POD" format, which is just like markdown. I don't know if it was split into several files.

I wrote the novel I'm referring to, and a Computer Graphics textbook (with images and equations and stuff).
