Icons/Emojis in markdown not rendered in output properly

Open michaelpnash opened this issue 5 years ago • 4 comments

An issue was noted here with the doc for the Cloudstate project: The markdown for emojis/icons, which appear to be supported, don't appear in the output as images, but as the original markdown.

In this page in the Paradox doc, we say we support GitHub-flavored markdown (e.g. this style), which in turn supports Emojis. However, any use of ✔️, etc appear as the source markdown in the output.

I was able to verify this locally (by building the Cloudstate doc locally), but have not tried every variation.

Hmm, we should probably clarify that, indeed we don't support all of that

As as a workaround, I'm pretty sure you can just use the corresponding unicode characters (i.e. ✓) - how they look then depends on your font though...

Ok so how do we get actual emoji support?

i haven't looked closely, but perhaps we could convert things like :+1: into unicode in preprocessing somewhere, and then make sure to include a font that renders them nicely in the theme?

I'm migrating Slick from Ornate, so you might want to look at what Ornate does.
