GitHub Flavored Markdown Pre-view Support

[Bonsanto]

Hello, May you add "GitHub Flavored Markdown" support? Several developers use it to make presentation pages for github.

In example, the language highlight:

var message = "Hello world";
console.log(message);

Agreed++. The flavored markdown format is used by gitlab too, so let's get it in!

I too would like GitHub-flavored markdown as that's what npm uses :-)

See https://github.com/nicoulaj/idea-markdown/issues/34 . This appears to be a duplicate.

bitbucket.org also uses GitHub flavored markdown. For instance it supports strikethrough inside a link: Language: ~~Scala~~ -> Language: ~~Scala~~

I gave up on waiting and forked this plugin, upgraded pegdown, fixed a few bugs, gave it a GitHub makeover and added some much needed features. The syntax highlighting is a mess because IntelliJ expects a lexer and the plugin uses pegdown. I did the best I could to compensate for the shortcomings. Tried the links. They seem to work. Give it a try and let me know what you think.

Try it out: MultiMarkdown

An easy workaround as of summer 2015 is to install the gfm plugin, which adds an extra "Gfm preview" tab:
