make a javascript implementation? #309

Closed dbursem closed 6 years ago

dbursem commented 6 years ago

This project is labeled "javascript" but it's actually completely written in jQuery. With jQuery becoming more and more obsolete, it would be nice to have an actual javascript implementation.

Otherwise please consider changing the label to jQuery or at least mention the dependency, might save some people like me from disappointment.

it's bootstrap-markdown and bootstrap requires jquery. anyone that uses bootstrap knows that it uses jquery so I don't see any issue at all.

PS: jquery is a framework of javascript - still a javascript

btw, this plugin does not even have it's own native parser i.e. it uses supported 3rd party library parser like marked. I think you're looking for something like that as this library is mainly for UI.

You can actually easily make something similar with this plugin without using jquery or even bootstrap and by just using marked + textarea, no need to use a fancy plugin like this if you don't like jquery. 😄
