The GitHub repository is still there and will continue to be there. However, you absolutely must be using one of the few implementations which actually support the non-standard feature and your documents are no longer portable to other systems.With a heavy heart and a lot of hand wringing, I decided last week to take down the Markdown Monster source code from the public GitHub repository due to rampant license abuses. In that case, you could assign a class to a paragraph or inline element, and then use CSS to define a color for a class. Now, StackOverflow (and probably GitHub) will strip the raw HTML out (as a security measure) so you lose the color here, but it should work on any standard Markdown implementation.Īnother possibility is to use the non-standard Attribute Lists originally introduced by the Markuru implementation of Markdown and later adopted by a few others (there may be more, or slightly different implementations of the same idea, like div and span attributes in pandoc). Would result in the following HTML: Some Markdown text with some blue text. For example, the following Markdown text (as suggested by in a comment): Some Markdown text with some *blue* text. That said, it is not impossible as you can include raw HTML (and HTML is a publishing format). Thus, Markdown’s formatting syntax only addresses issues that can be conveyed in plain text.įor any markup that is not covered by Markdown’s syntax, you simply use HTML itself.Īs it is not a "publishing format," providing a way to color your text is out-of-scope for Markdown. HTML is a publishing format Markdown is a writing format. The idea for Markdown is to make it easy to read, write, and edit prose. In my opinion, HTML tags are already easy to insert. The idea is not to create a syntax that makes it easier to insert HTML tags. Its syntax is very small, corresponding only to a very small subset of HTML tags. Markdown is not a replacement for HTML, or even close to it. Markdown’s syntax is intended for one purpose: to be used as a format for writing for the web. Markdown doesn't support color but you can inline HTML inside Markdown, e.g.: some *blue* text.Īs the original/official syntax rules state (emphasis added):
