Use EasyMDE for Preview

tnyeanderson commented 5 years ago

I took a look; we should definitely be using EasyMDE's preview functionality instead of Markdown-It. It supports checkboxes out of the box and prevents us from requiring another library. Here's what EasyMDE does not support that Markdown-It does:

Emojis
Blockquotes
Images (displayed as block instead of inline, larger size
Sub/Superscript
Inserted text
Marked text
Footnotes
Definition lists
Custom Containers

Since we don't support these features anyway, making the switch makes sense.

Some useful notes for implementation: Check if we are in preview mode: easyMDE.isPreviewActive(); Toggle preview mode: easyMDE.togglePreview()

This should be easy to implement. Then we can get rid of Markdown-It, AND have checkboxes available in preview mode :)

This will be obsolete due to #331. Did you already did some implementation on this or can we safely close this issue, @tnyeanderson?

You're absolutely right. Closing.
