Frequently Asked Questions

Does this support fenced code blocks and Markdown tables?

Yes, but in a lightweight way. Triple-backtick fences render as `<pre><code>`, and pipe tables render only when the next line looks like a separator row with `---`.

Why do nested lists or GitHub task lists not render the way I expect?

The parser is intentionally simple. It handles single-line ordered and unordered lists, but it does not implement the full CommonMark or GitHub Flavored Markdown rule set for nesting, task boxes, or more advanced constructs.

Can I copy the rendered HTML instead of the Markdown source?

Yes. `Copy HTML` copies the preview pane's `innerHTML`, while `Copy MD` copies the raw Markdown you typed.

Will raw HTML in my Markdown be sanitized out?

No. The preview is assembled as HTML and injected directly, so raw HTML in your source is rendered rather than stripped by a sanitizer.

What are Split, Preview, and Edit modes doing?

Split shows the editor and preview together. Preview hides the editor, and Edit hides the preview so you can focus on one pane at a time.
