Gemini supports RFC2046 mime types. So you can serve using their own text/gemini, text/markdown, text/html, and so on. You can go ahead and serve images and video, too.
It's up to the client to support the mime type, but a lot of clients have pretty wide-ranging support (a few actually are re-using a web browser engine, so have full support for a lot of formats). (And markdown will fallback to plain text when unsupported, which is what it is defined for, so would be fine).
