[maxn0d3x]

this editor.js supports Markdown editing or even converting option?

I tied to make my implementation with mdast but this is really hard to maintain "CLEAN data that easy to sanitize, extend and integrate with your logic" with markdown.
Example of clean data:

On this page you can see it in action — try to edit this text.

will be

{
  "type": "parahraph",
  "data": {
    "text": " On <b>this page</b> you can see it in action — try to edit this text."
  }
}

Which means you literally should re-implement ALL built-in inline tools to support markdown because we have HTML tags inside "CLEAN data" at this point. And idk how to do it without forking and changing core code

Actively watching this. Markdown input -> blocks -> output Markdown would be a godsent feature for editor.js

@Zulcom I was wondering how they are doing bold and italics and looks like the HTML tags are indeed mixed with the data as seen in the online demo. They say about inline elements in the docs and maybe markdown elements are meant to be inline 🤔 :

I guess they would be following the same approach for markdown as well.

This would be a killer feature 🙏🔥🌪!

MarkdownBlock: add Markdown Block support: #1500

editorjs-markdown-parser in awesome-editorjs is not suitable for me, so I created another one: markdown-block

demo:

I'm messing around with using turndown to parse the paragraph blocks, so far I'm having some good luck. I'll post my progress here, might have a package up in the near future.

This would be great. unified.js tools might work for this as well.
