Markdown support
under consideration

A markdown editor built into Hudu would also be great along with the ability to import markdown docs. Import the markdown doc, and keep it as markdown.

Coming here to express my support for this feature.
This is going to be super helpful for us to simply copy README.md files instead of having to reformat the entire documentation.

Yitz Pachtman Or link/embed README.md files directly from repo so you don't have to keep multiple places updated.

Beyond the current supported Markdown features, the one I want most is inline code formatting when I wrap text in backticks. This seems like a simple enough one given that other text formatting (bold, italics, etc.) is already supported.

David Long Yes! Exactly this. I've been _manually_ highlighting pieces of text (e.g. paths, object names, packages, etc) and setting font format to "inline code" which seems to be monospaced. I also use single backticks for future proofing and in the event I copy/paste the article somewhere that does support markdown.
Also, sidenote, currently "inline code" on dark theme is barely visible as it doesn't seem to add a background to the text like many markdown viewers (e.g. GitHub) do.

Merged in a post:
Allow pasting markdown into KB

This is pretty simple - if I type markdown syntax into an article, that markdown is styled/formatted once I press Enter. If I already have markdown text (like from the OpenAI integration, or from another source), pasting that into the KB will not style the text. The markdown syntax is retained and the document is treated as plain text with no styling/formatting.
I feel like everything is already in place to make this work just a little better. Maybe evaluate the whole document for markdown syntax and style any unstyled marks once the document is published?

I would love to see this implemented. I think the feedback is there to support it being needed.

This would be awesome. We us Dubble to create documentation and it supports markdown exports, which would be great for moving docs.

Hi it would be great to see some movement on this. It would really speed up the process

Please include inline/single-line code (i.e. monospaced) feature using single backtick, e.g.
var example = "test"
, and block code feature using the triple backtick, e.g.# This can be a drop in replacement trigger for your already existing code block function,
# just being able to trigger it using the triple backtick would be great!!
var example = "test"
As a bonus, I'm not sure if your current code block supports syntax highlighting for different languages, but being able to specify something like [triple-backtick]ruby, [triple-backtick]python, [triple-backtick]bash, and [triple-backtick]pwsh would be a huge win!

Templated markup similar to Confluence's implementation would also be helpful, currently {{somethingHere}} already does something though.
