Easii Markdown Preview

GitHub-style Markdown preview, export, and syntax highlighting for VS Code and Cursor.

Features

Live preview — GitHub-like rendering with tables, task lists, and debounced refresh while you edit
Syntax highlighting — Shiki-powered fenced code blocks (theme follows your editor in preview)
Export to HTML — Standalone file with inlined GitHub CSS
Export to PDF — Uses your local Chrome, Edge, or Chromium (no bundled browser)
Security-first export — Sanitized HTML, strict CSP, local images only in exports

VS Code 1.120+ or Cursor with compatible extension host
PDF export: Google Chrome, Microsoft Edge, or Chromium installed on the machine running the extension (not only on your laptop if you use Remote SSH)

Command	Description
`Easii Markdown Preview: Open Preview`	Open or focus preview for the active `.md` file
`Easii Markdown Preview: Export to HTML`	Save a standalone `.html` file
`Easii Markdown Preview: Export to PDF`	Save a `.pdf` file

Open the Command Palette (Cmd+Shift+P / Ctrl+Shift+P) and search for Easii Markdown Preview.

Setting	Description
`easiiMdPreview.pdf.executablePath`	Absolute path to Chrome/Edge/Chromium for PDF export. Leave empty to auto-detect.

First export may take a few seconds while Shiki initializes.
Remote/WSL hosts need Chromium libraries or a configured browser path — see export security.
Remote images in Markdown are not embedded in export (by design).

No Mermaid or KaTeX yet
No scroll sync between editor and preview
Relative images work in preview via webview; export embeds local images under the document/workspace only

npm install
npm run bundle
npm test

Press F5 in VS Code to launch the Extension Development Host (preLaunchTask: bundle).
