graphql
custom markdown renderer
Rendering Markdown content (for description texts) is currently baked into @graphiql/react. There we have an instance of markdown-it that takes care of all the markdown rendering.
@acao mentioned here that supporting custom markdown renders might be a valuable addition. If you stumble upon this issue, feedback is very welcome as we haven't yet seen any issue around this in our repo!
In terms of code structure, we could also move the markdown-it instance to @graphiql/toolkit as rendering markdown is not React specific.
indeed, or at least supporting the ability to supply a markdown-it config with your own or third party plugins. our config is nice and simple, but others may just want to provide their own markdown-it plugins.
that said, that leaves out the remark folks and others, so maybe a fully custom renderer option is in order!
monaco-graphql note for 3.0.0: monaco does it's own markdown rendering for hover, autocomplete description, definition lookup, etc. We supply the raw maybe-markdown descriptions from the schema in different ways between the graphql and variables json files, which use json schema and monaco-editor's internal, not-documented json schema markdownDescription feature!
