"Code block newline behavior is weird" yeah. The HTML logic itself in <pre> blocks is not "WYSIWYG friendly". CRLF is in effect only if it separates something but not at the end of <pre> block. But I will do

At the moment Markdown support is limited - only HTML-to-Markdown conversion is in place. Check: https://html-notepad.com/2018/11/03/version-0-1-1-0/ Basic idea is that HTML is so called "master for

But why? Isn't it better to use something like my https://html-notepad.com where you can just create/edit your document in WYSIWYG and use Markdown as one of input options? (Markdown is coming there). I think that this

It shall not be `display:none` but rather `visibility:none;` to exclude element either from layout or rendering trees.

Yeah and that puts enormous pressure on what we put there. That flexbox, half-baked and overcooked at the same time. And display:grid at the same time but using completely different concept of flexibility (fr units in grid) and some strange

Hmm, this looks like Cassowary solver that was first used in 1940 as stated here: https://cassowary.readthedocs.io/en/latest/topics/theory.htm... The only difference is that it is using Simplex method instead
