Markdown Tables?

[mcatkins]

Hi,
First I would like to say thanks for developing this. I have been using Logseq for over a year, and am becoming increasingly dissatisfied for all the same reasons as the others here (probably) have.

I even tried to get AI to make a replacement in Python (I'm a programmer, but wanted to learn "vibe coding" - I hate that name), and got a surprising way, quite easily, but you are so much ahead!

However, I use markdown tables quite a lot, and that would probably be a sticking point for me moving. How hard would they be to add? I could beta test, or maybe do some programming, but unfortunately I don't know rust (yet).

Hej,

Thank you for writing!

I'm not quite sure if you're asking how to implement this in your Python project, or if you'd like to suggest an idea for Looksyk.

Here's my answer for Looksyk:

Tables are currently supported. For transforming Markdown to HTML, Looksyk uses Marked, which offers broad support for Markdown syntax (Markdown 1.0 with 100%, Commonmark 98%, GitHub 97%).

For tables to be recognized as tables, they must have the following properties:

| First Header  | Second Header |
| ------------- | ------------- |
| Content Cell  | Content Cell  |
| Content Cell  | Content Cell  |

Does that help?

I wish you the best of luck and feel free to write to me if you have any further questions.

PS: Feel free to contribute ideas to the project. Of course, it would be most practical if you could make a pull request, but a well-thought-out idea here in the discussions is also helpful :) Just do what you want.

I can imagine that Rust is difficult for beginners (although in my experience, tools like GitHub Copilot can be very helpful).

Ah! Thanks, I missed this in my attempt because I overlooked the role of blocks.

No, I wasn't asking for my python project - I got tables (almost) for free with the markdown library.
I'm not sure there is much point in continuing with my python project, as Looksyk is so far ahead. Although mine does do some things you don't, like allowing more than one window to be open, and to have tabs within each window.

BTW: Is it possible for cursor up/down to move between blocks, rather than having to use the mouse?

Oh, that is a good idea. That is not (yet) implemented. :)
