I would love to have the page editor be a markdown editor, maybe with a preview next to it.
@nwalke commented on GitHub (Feb 12, 2016):
@ssddanbrown I've been thinking about how best to implement this... do you think it should just be a system wide setting? I imagine not everyone wants this, but I wonder if it makes sense to enable/disable it at a system level or a per page level.
@ssddanbrown commented on GitHub (Feb 13, 2016):
I would say system-level as it could confuse people going from one editor to another depending on what page they edit.
I've actually been eager to get some sort of markdown importing working for BookStack so we can have a 'BookStack docs' repo which would then be frequently imported to a BookStack instance at docs.bookstackapp.com.
@nwalke commented on GitHub (Feb 13, 2016):
So one would have a repo full of markdown content that bookstack just then displays? That would be pretty cool, but then you might as well just use the Github wiki repo :/
@ssddanbrown commented on GitHub (Feb 13, 2016):
Yeah, but by importing it into BookStack it will be fully searchable. I agree it wouldn't be useful for most cases but I'd like the project documentation to be hosted on BookStack to give new users a feel for it as they learn the features and it would give the bookstackapp.com site a little more weight in search results.
That said, I'm not too sure how images would be handled with this method.

Another vote for getting the markdown editor added. I'd love this, personally. Maybe it could be implemented in a similar way to how Ghost does it?
@broedli commented on GitHub (Mar 23, 2016):
Oh man I totally need this!
@nwalke commented on GitHub (Mar 24, 2016):
Yay! I tried my hand at implementing this, but it was super underwhelming and looked awful. I'm sure you'll come up with a much more elegant solution @ssddanbrown.
@broedli commented on GitHub (Apr 12, 2016):
I don't want to create a new issue for this question:
The current Markdown implementation seems to be pretty basic and is missing some functionalities like task lists, intended lists, code highlighting, ...
Will you do further tweaking on this feature?
@ssddanbrown commented on GitHub (Apr 12, 2016):
@broedli Absolutely, I really just wanted to get an initial implementation into BookStack to get things working with the back end systems.
With markdown I'm never really sure where to draw the line on simplicity and features. Feel free to open new issues with specific feature requests that people can comment/vote on as it helps me see what's most wanted.
