Markdown

@mosetta/ide-plugin-markdown · Markdown rendered next to its source, updated as you type.

What it does

A Markdown file opens in three modes, switched from the panel's header or with one command that cycles through them: the text alone, the text and the rendering side by side, or the rendering alone. The rendering follows the text as you type — unsaved edits included — with code blocks highlighted the same way as in the editor, tables, lists, links and images from the project.

The header also counts the words.

Keys

| Command | macOS | Windows and Linux | |---|---|---| | markdown.mode — text → both → view | — | — |

Bind a key to it in the keymap section if you switch often.

Using it from another plugin

The plugin is one file.view entry that puts the text editor and the rendering side by side — the example to copy for any view that draws what the user is editing (see the image viewer's README for the key's shape). The live text, unsaved edits included, is getPlugin(DocPlugin).liveText.
