Description
Macdown is pretty awesome, but I found the code block parsing is not as convenient as other editors do (github wiki page, typora.)
-
Everytime you want to write a code block, you have to make sure that there is a newline right above it.
Otherwise the parsing won't work.
which I think that this setting is not aligned with how github/typora do. So in order to use Macdown, I have to insert a newline right above every code block I write...
-
Github and typora accept "C" (capital letter) as parsing c block, while macdown doesn't.. which is also not aligned with other editors as well..
Just a few comment! And thanks for building up such nice tool.

Research direction
Reproduce both reported cases in MacDown: a code block following text without a blank line, and an uppercase C language tag. Compare the rendered output with the expected GitHub and Typora behavior; done means both forms parse and highlight consistently, with regression coverage added in the relevant parser tests.
