Question 1

How to add custom CSS to markdown output in NgxMd?

Accepted Answer

You can extend the marked.js renderer via the MarkdownService to modify HTML elements. For example, override the blockquote renderer to add custom classes, as shown in the marked customization section of the README.

Question 2

NgxMd or ngx-markdown: which is better for Angular?

Accepted Answer

NgxMd is simpler and directly wraps marked.js, while ngx-markdown might offer more features and active maintenance. Choose NgxMd if you prefer a lightweight option with basic integration, but evaluate ngx-markdown for broader community support.

Question 3

Can NgxMd handle large markdown files efficiently?

Accepted Answer

Performance depends on marked.js and Prism.js, which can slow down with very large files. For optimal performance, consider lazy-loading content or pre-processing markdown on the server.

Question 4

How to bind dynamic markdown from a variable in NgxMd?

Accepted Answer

Use the [data] binding on the ngx-md component, as illustrated in the variable binding example. Bind a string variable to dynamically update the rendered markdown content.

Question 5

Does NgxMd support Angular Universal for server-side rendering?

Accepted Answer

The README doesn't explicitly mention SSR support. Since it relies on client-side libraries like marked.js, server-side rendering may require additional setup to avoid hydration issues.

Question 6

How to import Prism.js for specific languages in NgxMd?

Accepted Answer

Import language components from prismjs in your TypeScript file, e.g., 'import prismjs/components/prism-python'. Then include the Prism CSS via CDN or local file, as detailed in the index.html setup.
