Feat: Gist embeds #32

Open kcoderhtml opened 1 year ago

It would be a nice to have as an embed option in addition to the already implemented CodePen and CodeSandbox integrations.

This could be fairly easily implemented by having people provide a link and putting it into the following template

<script src="https://gist.github.com/${username}/${id}.js"></script>

Indeed should be too difficult to implement. Out of curiosity - what's your use case for Gists that the built-in code blocks can't handle?

kcoderhtml commented 1 year ago

Having a version controlled system to manage the content mostly, but also being able to update the code without rebuilding the website.

Easy code updates make sense, though you have the drawback of having to edit the blocks separately. I can it being useful though and will try to add it in the next release.

As for version control, I plan to add a built-in system to create and manage versions directly in Vrite.

In case you haven't seen it, there's also a new built-in support for GitHub sync in case you want to version control your entire Markdown content.

Updated docs for that are in the works, but a blog post is available.

Thank you! I will check out Github sync.
