Add a live Markdown preview feature that displays real-time changes as users edit and customize their README files. This feature would provide an interactive panel alongside the README editing area, rendering the Markdown input immediately as the user types.
🔧 How Will This Enhance the App?
This feature will significantly improve the user experience by:
Allowing users to see instant visual feedback on their README formatting, which helps them make adjustments quickly.
Reducing the back-and-forth process of editing, saving, and viewing the README, making the customization process smoother.
Helping users who are less familiar with Markdown to understand how their content will be displayed once the README is finalized.
🎯 Use Cases
Previewing Formatting: Users can immediately see how headers, lists, and code blocks will look, allowing them to adjust formatting without needing to download the README each time.
Visualizing Embedded Media: Users can verify how images, GIFs, and links will appear directly within the tool, ensuring that embedded media is displayed correctly.
Quick Debugging: Users can quickly spot any Markdown syntax errors or formatting issues and correct them on the spot without needing to test in a separate Markdown viewer.
📦 Suggested Implementation
Two-Column Layout: Implement a side-by-side editor with a left panel for Markdown input and a right panel for the live preview.
Markdown Renderer: Use a library like markdown-it or showdown.js to parse and render Markdown input in real-time.
Toggle Option: Provide a toggle option for users to show or hide the live preview panel, allowing them to focus on editing when they don't need to see the preview.
Styling Consistency: Ensure that the preview styling matches GitHub's Markdown rendering style for accurate visual feedback.
