[Feature Request] Github markdown design

 * NOTE:
 * - The use of browser-specific styles (-moz-, -webkit-) should be avoided.
 *   If used, they may not render correctly for people reading the email in
 *   a different browser than the one from which the email was sent.
 * - The use of state-dependent styles (like a:hover) don't work because they
 *   don't match at the time the styles are made explicit. (In email, styles
 *   must be explicitly applied to all elements -- stylesheets get stripped.)

Note that I'm not sure if the design has copyright (so I didn't submit a pull request). I was simply copying and pasting some essential CSS attributes from the source code using Developer Tools. But at least this makes my email look close to the ones that I wrote in my Github gist. Any plan for this?

[nickylimjj]

Is the feature request to have a different look between normal and markdown mode?

@nickylimjj I’m not sure but it will ONLY work under the (GitHub) markdown mode; I don’t think normal Is necessary here.
