How do you "walk through" comments w/o a keyboard on IPhone? Since there is no "Next Uread" tab embedded and I haven't figured out a way to have virtual keyboard being on always on Android.

Is "The Code" embedded at your article latest and greatest one to try out?

Android chrome (Pixel3 phone) doesn't have a bookmarks bar (AFAIK). Haven't tried other browsers

Nice! I added a preview button to see the marked up code before posting: https://hastebin.com/raw/ogozavenes

I think the duplicate lines are happening only when hitting reply. But they go away when the page is refreshed.

I love the experimentation. We are getting there! My biggest problem using this hack is the doubling of sentences.

I’ll post the JS source code some time, but I’m going to bed. It’s **late!**

Does *italic* and **bold** formatting work?

Ignore this, I'm experimenting with terrifying advanced technologies:

Snarkdown is a dead simple **1kb** [Markdown] parser.

It's designed to be as minimal as possible, for constrained use-cases where a full Markdown parser would be inappropriate.

## Features

- **Fast:** since it's basically one regex and a huge if statement

- **Tiny:** it's 1kb of gzipped ES3

- **Simple:** pass a Markdown string, get back an HTML string

> **Note:** Tables are not yet supported. If you love impossible to read regular expressions, submit a PR!

## Demos & Examples

- ⚛️ [**Snarky**](https://snarky.surge.sh) - markdown editor built with Preact & Snarkdown

- ✏️ [**Simple Markdown Editor**](http://jsfiddle.net/developit/828w6t1x/)

## Usage

Snarkdown exports a single function, which parses a string of Markdown and returns a String of HTML. Couldn't be simpler.

The snarkdown module is available in [every module format](https://unpkg.com/snarkdown/dist/) you'd ever need: ES Modules, CommonJS, UMD...

```js

import snarkdown from 'snarkdown';

let md = '_this_ is **easy** to `use`.';

let html = snarkdown(md);

console.log(html);

// <em>this</em> is <strong>easy</strong> to <code>use</code>.

```
