A VS Code extension for improving the display of markdown directly in the editor. This makes markdown editing more pleasant as you don't need to be switching between the editor and preview as much, and it hides a lot of clutter.

Tweaks made include:

• Making headings larger
• Hiding bold, italic, strikethrough and code formatting characters
• Hiding URI formatting characters
• Rendering horizontal lines
• Disabling coloring of bold text, headings, and URIs

Install from the VS Code Marketplace or Open VSX Registry
