Hi!
The built-in MarkdownViewer plugin currently doesn't render two common GitHub Flavored Markdown (GFM) features:
- Task lists / checkboxes
Input:
- Footnotes
Input:
Some text with a footnote1.
QuickLook version: 4.5.0 (latest as of testing)
OS: Windows
Both features are part of standard GFM and are commonly used in README files and technical documentation, so supporting them would make MarkdownViewer's output more consistent with how .md files render on GitHub.
Hi!
The built-in MarkdownViewer plugin currently doesn't render two common GitHub Flavored Markdown (GFM) features:
Input:
Expected: rendered as actual checkboxes (☐ / ☑), like on GitHub.
Current behavior: rendered as plain text with a bullet point, e.g. • [ ] Task not done.
Input:
Some text with a footnote1.

Footnotes
This is the footnote explanation.
Expected: 1 rendered as a small superscript reference link, with the definition moved to the bottom of the document as a footnotes section.
Current behavior: 1 and the 1: ... definition line are both left as literal plain text in place. Additionally, footnote references seem to get picked up by the document outline/TOC generator, producing garbled entries in the sidebar (e.g. random numeric IDs instead of headings).
