vim-markdown-composer VS vim-pandoc

I use the Markdown Composer for many years now. It’s fast and it simply opens a tab in your browser.

Currently using https://github.com/euclio/vim-markdown-composer and am happy with it.

nb is very good and I've used it extensively for the last 2 years or so. I especially like that you can just throw it a url and it will create a bookmark as well as download a markdown version of the page (using pandoc to convert I think?) This is very useful, especially when links go stale

Also, if you install notational-fzf-vim (https://github.com/Alok/notational-fzf-vim) and point it at the nb folder, searching through notes becomes a breeze. Additionally, you can use vim-markdown-composer (https://github.com/euclio/vim-markdown-composer) as a previewer for markdown in vim.

I'm using https://github.com/euclio/vim-markdown-composer for a while now and it fits my needs, it can use pandoc to render + the firefox darkreader plugin works as expected.

With that, the only thing left to do was the make it as convenient as possible to export an MLA-formatted PDF from inside Neovim, so I wrote a custom function using the vim-pandoc plugin as a wrapper to make the command simpler:

See also vim-pandoc, vim-latex, vimura

vim-pandoc is a plugin that uses pandoc external program to convert documents between different formats.

I use vim-pandoc with neovim, it nests # headings as expected. If you install it, check :help vim-pandoc-folding for more info and other options.

From that perspective, raw text might be okay--google drive is mostly treated as a cloud storage system and not really as a place for formatted documents. Markdown is still useful from a vim folding perspective; and generating formatted output (e.g., via pandoc) can be done outside of vim (or perhaps using vim-pandoc or simple script snippets).

What about an alternative markdown syntax plugin? I'm using https://github.com/vim-pandoc/vim-pandoc alongside https://github.com/vim-pandoc/vim-pandoc-syntax (you can also use only the syntax plugin), which does support latex math.

I was trying to use some of Gilles Castel's LaTeX snippets for my own notetaking, which I do on nvim with markdown, using pandoc to convert to pdf. The problem with this is that the tex snippets are designed to be activated only when in LaTeX math, but there's no function to directly check this in the plugin I'm using for pandoc markdown.

I'm trying to cut back on some plugins that I'm not really getting that much out of and clean up my vimrc because it was getting a little bloated. Does anyone know if there is a good way to have a pop-up table of contents in a markdown document for jumping around a document like there is in 'vim-pandoc' (https://github.com/vim-pandoc/vim-pandoc.git) without all the other stuff in that plugin? I suppose I can just use marks but I really liked that one feature. Thanks!
