| May 12, 2023 at 12:59 | comment | added | rene Mod | @RayButterworth they do have code for the client renderer and the server renderer. The client code is javascript (hopefully now typescript but that still transpiles back to JS) and the server side is C#. Ideally those two implementations share the same test cases to guarantee the same behavior. Now I welcome you back to the harsh reality ... | |

| Nov 30, 2021 at 13:51 | comment | added | Ray Butterworth | This is still broken nearly a year later. I just wasted a lot of time discovering that I needed to insert an empty line before the table, all because the table preview looked just fine. How is it even possible for the preview and the published result to behave differently? Surely they don't have their own personal code for doing the parsing and formatting? | |

| Jan 26, 2021 at 15:07 | comment | added | rene Mod | I thought I answered one such post and I was right. Unfortunately that was on MSO: meta.stackoverflow.com/a/403577/578411 | |
| Jan 26, 2021 at 15:05 | comment | added | rene Mod | And that found me Markdown preview doesn't match post | |
| Jan 26, 2021 at 15:03 | comment | added | rene Mod | @Catija that looks like a good duplicate candidate, yes. | |
| Jan 26, 2021 at 15:02 | comment | added | Catija StaffMod | @rene like this one - Markdown table preview does not detect missing blank line before table header? | |
| Jan 26, 2021 at 13:32 | comment | added | Luuklag | Probably one of the answers on the announcement post @rene | |
| Jan 26, 2021 at 13:27 | comment | added | rene Mod | Yeah, I was looking for an existing bug report on that as I'm sure I've seen it somewhere before. My search fu hasn't yielded anything so far. | |

| Jan 26, 2021 at 13:20 | comment | added | Billy Mailman | That's all well and good, but the two parsers should be picky in the same way, so people don't post things that then mis-render. | |
| Jan 26, 2021 at 13:06 | comment | added | rene Mod | The parser is very picky about whitespace. Adding an extra blank line solves all ambiguity. | |
