Doesn't this miss the point of Markdown? I thought the main selling point of Markdown was that for plain text reading i.e. the markdown was clear and understandable as plain text. This introduces a bunch of additional features that can ONLY be represented accurately once parsed to HTML.
Maybe I'm missing the point, but I didn't think Markdown was invented because the world needed yet another markup language.

- jotux 14y agoThis is correct and I guess when I titled the article "reactive text generation from markdown" I implied it should be some kind of new markdown language, which is not what I want. >The point is simplifying the writing of interactive documents Yes.
