Live Preview

Live Preview is Obsidian-like inline rendering: the line you are editing stays raw Markdown, and other lines render inline when you move away.

Behavior

  • Active line: raw Markdown syntax remains visible.
  • Inactive lines: Markdown markers are hidden/replaced with styled equivalents.
  • Efficient rendering: updates are viewport-based.

What renders inline

  • Headings, emphasis, strikethrough, inline code
  • Blockquotes, lists, links, horizontal rules
  • Fenced code blocks (fences hidden when not active)
  • Task lists (checkboxes when not active)
  • Images (renders inline and hides syntax when not active)
