Problem or Use Case

When writing memos in Markdown, users cannot see how their content will render until they save and view the memo elsewhere. This creates friction:

  • Users must guess how headings, lists, tables, task lists, and code blocks will look
  • Formatting errors (mismatched list indentation, broken table columns) go unnoticed
  • Math expressions ($...$, $$...$$) render only after save
  • Users toggle between writing and previewing by saving

Who Would Use This?

Me and other users who wants see changes at realtime

Proposed Solution

Add a split-view mode to the memo editor that shows a live-rendered Markdown preview alongside the CodeMirror editor, toggled by the user.

Alternatives Considered

Making notes in another editor before saving in Memos
