Live Preview Mode for Markdown Editing

Problem

Current markdown file viewing requires toggling between "read" mode and "source text" mode, causing disorienting context loss. When editing a file, the view switches modes and scrolls to a different position.

Proposed Solution

Implement a live preview mode that displays rendered markdown while allowing inline editing, similar to Obsidian's live preview feature.

Twitter was failing me badly so I quickly wrote down a random list of reasons why I think (of course, that's just my opinion) code challenges hurt diversity:

A lot of people performed badly at exams at uni (or any other form of exam). I can correlate to this very well as I was getting really nervous when taking an exam. I think it's kinda of normal to see code challenges as an exam. I know of people that wouldn't apply because of this reason. After seeing a lot of bad usages of this hiring tool, I wouldn't apply in most cases either.
I think it's safe to assume code challenges acts as a filter. All our hiring techinques do and that's fine. My "problem" with this one is that it brings a lot of false negatives. The challenge may be badly written, the person may not have the time to commit to it. And junior developers can get really scared by this.
Code challenges are generally meant to hire the bar of seniority and I find that highly counterintuitive. Based on my experience, the more senior a person is,
