I wonder if Pandoc being written in Haskell is what's stopping it from being the default Markdown engine everywhere. Or am I misunderstanding the technical needs here?
Oh man, this is PERFECT for me. Previously I would just run VS Code and periodically build my current markdown document while writing LaTeX in it, and have a browser window refresh on changes (using the LivePage addon for Chrome). This saves a lot of trouble for me, very excited!
Very awesome. However, the $ signs indicate financial stuff. It would be nice to have a different delimiter like the code blocks use back-tics. For example using back-ticks couple with single-quotes? It doesn't work since it clash with the code block just for example more legible:<p>`' x^2 + 4<i>x + 4 '`<p>Remember: the whole idea behind markdown is it should be </i>first and foremost* legible from plain-text. One idea behind typography is it shouldn't be noticed at all to the reader.
I have looked into markdown editors a lot, and the best I found was this plugin for Atom:<p><a href="https://github.com/shd101wyy/markdown-preview-enhanced" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/shd101wyy/markdown-preview-enhanced</a><p>I know Atom kind of sucks, but this plugin is amazing. Mostly because it supports PlantUML which is also amazing.<p>Highly recommended.
This is really cool for quick things, but for anything short of quick notes, I don't want to have to manually number my equations. I generally don't write top-to-bottom, I write subsections at a time.<p>Labels seem straightforward enough, but I'm at a loss for a markdown-y way to do a ref.<p>$$\exist 0 \in R \mathrm{s.t.} a + 0 = a \forall a \in R$$ (eqn:addid)<p>In addition to a zero as per (*eqn:addid), one must also show the existence of an inverse.<p>It's decent, but I don't love it. And further overloading the splat will be miserable.
I've been using the free-tier of Classeur [1] for taking notes during class, which I then export to a PDF. It's basically an online Math/Mardown editor with pretty much the same feature-set.<p>Maybe I'll try this out and see how I like it.<p>[1] <a href="http://classeur.io/" rel="nofollow">http://classeur.io/</a>
Neovim users can do something similar:<p><a href="https://github.com/donRaphaco/neotex" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/donRaphaco/neotex</a><p><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zCdDgtlBaTU" rel="nofollow">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zCdDgtlBaTU</a>
Surprised I haven't seen anyone post Markdeep here yet: <a href="https://casual-effects.com/markdeep/" rel="nofollow">https://casual-effects.com/markdeep/</a><p>Seems to cover a lot of the same ground, though it's not restricted to visual studio code.
