3 years ago Sorry if this question looks stupid, but I'm discovering MyST and I'm a bit confused on how to use it in vscode. Do I have to install myst-language-support in order to be able to preview .md document made using it or do I have to install (don't know how) markdown-it-py and markdown-it-myst.
What are your advices for a newbie like me ? Many thanks for your clarifications.
ps: I want to build Jupyter-Book with it on vscode.

Thanks @CodeCox. I have to say, I have not touched this project in months (although I do use it daily within VS Code for the syntax highlighting).
Since then, there has been many, many changes to myst; notably (since vs-code uses markdown-it) the creation of markdown-it-py as the backend to myst-parser, the addition of extended support for a number of markdown-it plugins, and the creation of markdown-it-myst.
I hope to circle back around to this project then (when time permits!), to re-appraise it and integrate all these new developments in.
Ling story short, this should fix the bug!
