How can I use mardown-it plugins in Marp for VSC

[dhruva81]

Hi Marpit team

I am trying to use markdown-it-container and markdown-it-sup extensions in Marp for Visual Studio Code. But I am not able to do this. I have searched on Google and YouTube, but I am not able to find any tutorial on how to integrate this functionality.

Please help how can I integrate other markdown-it extensions in Marp for VSC.

Thank you

Unfortunately, Marp for VS Code cannot use plugins due to security reasons. You always should use Marp CLI if you want.

Marpit (and markdown-it) plugins may break the security model of VS Code. For example, VS Code is designed to prevent loading any files from the user-unintended location such as the outside of the current workspace, but plugins can ignore this rule easily.

We have learned the importance of user security from the classic Marp app. The security hole would make triggered the collapse sooner or later as same as the classic app even if the hole is small. Please understand that Marp official tools for general users cannot add a feature if there is even a little risk of security.

Marp CLI is designed for the advanced user like you. The best way for using plugins is to use Marp CLI in VS Code integrated terminal. Learn how to use plugins in the documentation.

I found https://github.com/yzhang-gh/vscode-markdown-container here.
Any chance to support it?
