Converts content wrapped in <amd> tags from Markdown to HTML during review, in the editor, or in batch, with optional preview and shortcuts.
Converts fields between Markdown and HTML automatically on focus change or manually via a configurable shortcut, while preventing editing of the generated HTML.
Converts note fields between Markdown and HTML, either automatically on focus changes or manually via a shortcut, while preventing editing of the generated HTML.
Enables adding and editing Anki notes in extended CommonMark Markdown within fields or a separate window, using a CodeMirror editor with HTML conversion and configurable syntax extensions.
Automatically renders Markdown typed into tagged note fields as styled HTML and restores raw syntax when refocused, with syntax highlighting and support for Anki 23.x–25.x+.
Inserts customizable HTML tables through a dialog or keyboard shortcut, or converts selected pipe-delimited markdown-like text into a table; it does not edit existing tables.
This add-on assumes that everything you pass to it is Markdown.
In other words, if you pass something to it that is not Markdown, you're probably not gonna like the results.
This add-on is meant to require as little human interaction as possible. There are plenty of more user-friendly/visual Markdown add-ons available.
Allows you to type your notes in Markdown and have it automatically converted to HTML. NOTE: this happens only when you are finished editing, not as you are typing. You need to close the editor, or if you're in the browser, navigate to the next card (Ctrl-Shift-N) then back. You should then see the changes.
If you don't want your notes to be automatically converted, you can use the Markdown button provided. Select the Markdown text you want to convert, and hit the button.
Also includes various Markdown extensions that can be enabled or disabled as you like. config.md has more info.
The goal of this addon was to keep things as simple as possible. All the other Markdown addons were too cumbersome and complex for me. I just wanna write my notes in Markdown and forget I have this addon installed. I think I've accomplished that. All the functionality is provided in 60 lines of Python.
The fenced_code extension (enabled by default) allows you to enter code blocks. Moreover, you can specify the language of the code like in Github flavored Markdown. ````` ```php ```` will produce <pre><code class="language-php">. This allows you to include syntax highlighting for your code blocks.
FWIW, to install a syntax highlighter:
collection.media directory (for example, highlight.min.js)_ (for example, highlight.min.js -> _highlight.min.js).
_ (e.g., _github-dark.min.css)<link rel="stylesheet" href="_github-dark.min.css">
<script src="_highlight.min.js"></script>
<script>hljs.highlightAll();</script>
I'm sure there are many. Please make an issue on the Github repo or, if you're feeling inspired, push a fix!

As of January 2024 (I haven't checked the exact version), the Anki editor regrettably inserts <br> tags when ever you hit Enter. This really messes with the Markdown formatting, especially for code blocks. The workaround that I use is to type my code blocks in the editor's HTML editor (Ctrl-Shift-X). The HTML editor does not insert <br> tags, though entering Markdown in the HTML editor is kinda ironic.
