Research direction

Review the repository's Markdown files and find headings written without a space after the # character. Update them to use the shown spaced format; done means the affected headings render correctly as headings rather than plain text.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

Headings for markdown files in this project are showing up as:

#Heading_title

Github changed their markdown parsing format I believe and there should be a space between the pound sign looking like this:

# Heading_title
