QtCreator Markdown Plugin

Hi all,

I have been developing a markdown plugin for QtCreator. I think it is time to announce :-). You can reach from:
https://github.com/erdinc09/MarkdownEditView .

I also published releases for all three platforms. I hope you like it.

Features:

Dark Theme:

Hi @erdinc09,

very nice plugin!

I've added it to the Qt Creator plugin gallery. You should probably also announce it on the mailing list.

Do you have plans to upstream the plugin, so it is included in Qt Creator by default?

Best regards

I'm very glad to hear that you liked the plugin, thank you!

I really want that it is included QtCreator by default, but I don't know whether it is possible or not for the following reasons:

Plugin depends qtwebengine and qtwebchannel modules which do not ship with the QtCreator by default.
Plugin uses javascript for parsing markdown.

Thank you for adding it to the Qt Creator Plug-in Gallery.

I just subscribed to the mailing list, after receiving the subscription mail, I will announce it on there. Thanks for the idea.

After announcing on the mail list, I think that the QtCreator developers may evaluate and decide whether it can be part of the IDE by default.

I like Qt and Qt Community, I will be so happy if I can help others ...

Best regards

Ok, the added dependencies may be a problem - but that's a decision for the core developers on the mailing list.

Note that JavaScript is already used inside Creator (QJSEngine), so that alone might not be a big deal.

Again, thanks for the useful work!

Hi @erdinc09 I have a small question. Is this plugin only compatible with Qt6 or it can be used with Qt5?

Thanks.

You will need a recent QtCreator built with Qt6
