A reader for the CommonMark 0.31.2 specification

Markdown,
read side by side.

One source. Two renderers. 153 carefully chosen examples from the official spec, every one shown in parallel: the raw markdown, MdFlow's output, and markdown-it's output. Where they agree. Where they disagree. Where MdFlow says no, on purpose.

Three columns. Always.

The handbook reads like a parallel-text edition. Source on the left, two renderings to its right. The eye sweeps across; differences become visible without effort.
