Markdown table prettier extension for Visual Studio Code.
Features
- Support for formatting tables in documents.
- Sort tables by any column (configurable).
- Numeric-aware comparison so numbers sort correctly even when stored as strings.
- Date-aware comparison supporting ISO-style dates (YYYY-MM-DD / YYYY-MM-DD HH:mm:ss).
- Ignore specific characters such as whitespace or prefixes before comparing.
- Optional prettier pass after sorting (disable via
markdownTableSortPrettier.usePrettierFormat).
