Open ranaharoni opened 7 years ago

ranaharoni commented 7 years ago

Actual behaviour

Missing Markdown formatting functionality

Expected behaviour

Project & task descriptions should be able to be formatted using markdown syntax.

Steps to reproduce

  1. Edit a project or a task in the browser
  2. Type the following ***This should be bold*** and [this should be a link pointing to Google](https://google.com)
  3. Navigate to the project or task overview through the mobile app

Configuration

Markdown support is available since version 0.4 I tried your example with the current build and it works fine. screenshot_1492777298

I double checked it, and it was due to a wrong Markdown input.

  Wrong       Right
**Bold ** ≠ **Bold**

It would be nice if the markdown parser was a little bit more loose in the syntax. I know it's not a technical issue, but when editing stuff on the phone, it could easily result in a usability issue as some keyboards append a space after a word when auto-corrected.
