idea: markdown syntax in note box #1503

Open seralf opened 6 years ago

seralf commented 6 years ago

Hi it would be nice to introduce markdown syntax support inside the note box for a task. I imagine this could be initially actually rendered only when exporting to PDF, then also on the swing/GUI side: the second one it's probably the most complex, but I suppose it could be achieved in two steps:

  1. md -> HTML
  2. HTML -> GUI (swing) A good option for parsing/rendering to HTML a markdown source in Java seems to be: https://github.com/vsch/flexmark-java

(sorry in case this is not the right place to suggest new feature)

Willing to code this feature? It is likely to be more helpful than Github

why not? I don't have a lot of time, but if someone suggest me a pointer to the classes currently involved for rendering, I coul give a try with no hurry ;-)
