# Markdown
|
|
|
|
Markdown support is available natively in Zed.
|
|
|
|
- Tree-sitter: [tree-sitter-markdown](https://github.com/tree-sitter-grammars/tree-sitter-markdown)
|
|
- Language Server: N/A
|
|
|
|
## Syntax Highlighting Code Blocks
|
|
|
|
Zed supports language-specific syntax highlighting of markdown code blocks by leveraging [tree-sitter language grammars](../extensions/languages.md#grammar). All [Zed supported languages](../languages.md), including those provided by official or community extensions, are available for use in markdown code blocks. All you need to do is provide a language name after the opening <kbd>```</kbd> code fence like so:
|
|
|
|
````python
|
|
```python
|
|
import functools as ft
|
|
|
|
@ft.lru_cache(maxsize=500)
|
|
def fib(n):
|
|
return n if n < 2 else fib(n - 1) + fib(n - 2)
|
|
```
|
|
````
|
|
|
|
## Configuration
|
|
|
|
### Format
|
|
|
|
Zed supports using Prettier to automatically re-format Markdown documents. You can trigger this manually via the {#action editor::Format} action or via the {#kb editor::Format} keyboard shortcut. Alternately, you can automatically format by enabling [`format_on_save`](../configuring-zed.md#format-on-save) in your settings.json:
|
|
|
|
```json [settings]
|
|
"languages": {
|
|
"Markdown": {
|
|
"format_on_save": "on"
|
|
}
|
|
},
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Trailing Whitespace
|
|
|
|
By default Zed will remove trailing whitespace on save. If you rely on invisible trailing whitespace being converted to `<br />` in Markdown files you can disable this behavior with:
|
|
|
|
```json [settings]
|
|
"languages": {
|
|
"Markdown": {
|
|
"remove_trailing_whitespace_on_save": false
|
|
}
|
|
},
|
|
```
