Hi y'all, maker here. This is pretty basic/simple. And most of the information is pretty generic. But hopefully this can help in the fight, and make some of the waves of information easier to understand for each other. Feedback welcome :-)
Thanks. Yeah incremental would have been better. This round the time to the closest 30 mins
maker here. This was pretty quick and dirty, but wanted something a bit cute to add to a time zone widget i built. Might save some others some time
It's to make linking to headers work. Eg oscarmorridon.com/md-page#code

As the element doesn't exist at time of first load this is a work around to focus on id once content is rendered in html

Thanks everyone for taking the time to look, and give some feedback. Most definitely better options out there, but I was really aiming for simple, and low tech knowledge to get a md page on the internet.

I added a wiki page https://github.com/oscarmorrison/md-page/wiki explaining a couple of use cases, and some more details. Feel free to leave more feedback / open issues. Thanks Oscar!

Thanks @judofyr + @matt-tingen. I just updated it to use the 'noscript' opening tag. Good idea, and solved my normal html not working problem! Thanks a bunch!
yep. you're 100% on the money. no wizardry here. Couple of extra features like ability to hash link, and external url open in new window. but that it
fixed the flicker, was a Cloudflare rocket script issue
Hey @jonnydubowsky thanks for catching that. Just fixed it all up now, so should be good. This is what I did to fix https://gist.github.com/cvan/8630f847f579f90e0c014dc5199c337...
Just tested in on FF 62. Seems fine. But yeah I have really only tested it on chrome
Sometimes I just want to get some information out there on the internet, and rather than sharing a Evernote page or having to create a webpage I can just write markdown.

Main use-case is when I want to share a markdown doc in a private GitHub repo, with a public url e.g http://oscarmorrison.com/md-page/oimasdoijasdmadeupurl-01231...

haha. thanks @boffinism
Thanks @posamari for the feedback, I was a bit generous with the title. I have updated HN title and GitHub Readme.
