Shows a Markdown file or string in the console in a friendly way using VT100 escape sequences or in a browser using HTML.

Description

The Show-Markdown cmdlet is used to render Markdown in a human readable format either in a terminal or in a browser.

Show-Markdown can return a string that includes the VT100 escape sequences which the terminal renders (if it supports VT100 escape sequences). This is primarily used for viewing Markdown files in a terminal. You can also get this string via the ConvertFrom-Markdown by specifying the AsVT100EncodedString parameter.

Show-Markdown also has the ability to open a browser and show you a rendered version of the Markdown. It renders the Markdown by turning it into HTML and opening the HTML file in your default browser.

You can change how Show-Markdown renders Markdown in a terminal by using Set-MarkdownOption.

This cmdlet was introduced in PowerShell 6.1.

Examples

Example 1: Simple example specifying a path

Show-Markdown -Path ./README.md

Example 2: Simple example specifying a string

# Show-Markdown

-LiteralPath

Specifies the path to a Markdown file. Unlike the Path parameter, the value of LiteralPath is used exactly as it is typed. No characters are interpreted as wildcards.
