any interest in supporting gfm-tasks?

They're kinda meaningless without the back-end to support setting/unsetting them in a data store. Nice to look at, but that's about it.

See #107.

Hi @leeoniya , @chjj
does this feature implemented?
it's pretty useful.

I think we can just render
[ ] to <input type="checkbox" disabled>
and render
[x] to <input type="checkbox" disabled checked>

don't need to add any css class on input element.

how do you think?

[leeoniya]

I can only speak regarding my project, https://github.com/leeoniya/reMarked.js

As I mentioned here: #107 (comment) , I'd probably go with unicode entities, but having the option of input checkboxes would also work and probably more friendly from an HTML => markdown conversion perspective. It would be trivial to add support for both variations in reMarked.js.

This issue seems to be duped pretty often in marked and gets hung up on "there's no backend support" and "it's not standard" arguments, both of which I find moot.

@leeoniya

I think the backend support is no need for this UI.
as most of us just want a "todo list" like things.

for the "not standard" stuff, as we already has gfm option, it's no matter to make it more "gfm".

if most people like it, it can become "standard" ...

btw. when I have time, I'll work on this feature. maybe this weekend.

and as other part is render to html, I think we can just render this to input element. but not unicode char.

:)

Is this featured added now?
