Come together with the global Drupal community in Rotterdam, 28 Sept – 1 Oct 2026. Sessions, contribution, connection, and Early Bird savings until 8 June.The live module provides a very similar feature to this module.
One of the 7 principles of the Drupal project is collaboration. Would you consider merging your project into that one and collaborating with it's authors?
Otherwise, it would be great if you could document on the project page what makes this module different and also link to that module so that people can make a good decision about which one to use.

vacilando commentedLive seems to have stopped developing. I remember testing it in the past but it was too buggy. Hoping that showdown will get the functionality, so common on other platforms, to Drupal. Good luck, cweagans!

gregglesThat's a great reason to take over that project, not a reason to start a new one. In my opinion, the Live module has a technically more correct approach since it works with every input format/filter.

wim leersI recently contacted the author of the live module and he didn't have any interest in porting it to D7.

gregglesSeems like a great reason to take over that project (I feel like a broken record...).
Comment #6
wim leersI wasn't implying anything, I was just contributing a fact I just happened to know to the conversation :)

cweagansI wasn't aware of the Live module when I wrote this. I'll take a look at it and see if it's something that's doable.
One of the nice things about this module is that preview is almost instantaneous, since the showdown library is a complete implementation of a Markdown parser in Javascript.
