Walkthrough

The MarkdownViewer gains reference links, entities, alerts, footnotes, configurable line breaks, parsed-document APIs, accessibility attributes, safer URL handling, expanded demos, and comprehensive tests.

Changes

Markdown parsing and rendering

Layer / File(s) Summary
Reference parsing and shared parse context
src/BlazorUI/Bit.BlazorUI.Extras/Services/Markdown/Parsing/*, src/BlazorUI/Bit.BlazorUI.Extras/Services/Markdown/Pipeline/*, src/BlazorUI/Bit.BlazorUI.Extras/Services/Markdown/Rendering/*, src/BlazorUI/Bit.BlazorUI.Extras/Services/Markdown/Syntax/*
The pipeline supports reference links, reference images, character references, shared parse context, URL space encoding, and raster data images.
Alerts, footnotes, and line-break extensions
src/BlazorUI/Bit.BlazorUI.Extras/Services/Markdown/Extensions/*, src/BlazorUI/Bit.BlazorUI.Extras/Components/MarkdownViewer/BitMarkdownViewer.scss
New optional extensions parse and render GitHub alerts and footnotes. Another extension converts soft breaks to hard breaks.
Viewer APIs and rendering behavior
src/BlazorUI/Bit.BlazorUI.Extras/Components/MarkdownViewer/BitMarkdownViewer.cs, src/BlazorUI/Bit.BlazorUI.Extras/Services/Markdown/Extensions/BitMarkdownTableRenderer.cs
The viewer exposes Document and OnParsed, preserves surrogate pairs during truncation, adds accessibility attributes, and uses CSS classes for table alignment.

Demo and validation

Layer / File(s) Summary
MarkdownViewer demonstrations and documentation
src/BlazorUI/Demo/Client/Bit.BlazorUI.Demo.Client.Core/Pages/Components/Extras/MarkdownViewer/*
The demo documents and demonstrates the new Markdown features, security settings, parsed AST traversal, styling, and RTL content.
Pipeline and viewer validation
src/BlazorUI/Tests/Bit.BlazorUI.Tests/Components/Extras/MarkdownViewer/*
Tests cover parsing, extensions, rendering, security, accessibility, callbacks, concurrency, and CommonMark edge cases.

Priority: ➖ Normal

Estimated code review effort: 5 (Critical) | ~120 minutes

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to c7fea

Some multi-viewer footnote navigation, large Markdown inputs, and copyable demo examples remain incorrect, but the impact is bounded and does not prevent merging with owner awareness.

A rabbit parses links in a line,
Alerts and footnotes now align.
The AST hops through the page,
Safe URLs step onto the stage.
“OnParsed!” sings the hare with delight,
While tests keep every carrot right.

211-218: 📐 Maintainability & Code Quality | 🔵 Trivial | 💤 Low value

Keep render-tree sequence numbers in source order.

AddElementReferenceCapture(6, ...) follows attributes with sequence numbers 7 and 8. Assign increasing sequence numbers to the attributes and reference capture.

In
`@src/BlazorUI/Bit.BlazorUI.Extras/Services/Markdown/Extensions/BitMarkdownFootnoteDefinitionParser.cs`:
- Around line 29-31: In the footnote definition parser, validate the raw source
label length using labelEnd - p - 1 against
BitMarkdownLinkHelpers.MaxLabelLength before calling NormalizeLabel; retain the
existing normalized-label validation afterward.

In
`@src/BlazorUI/Bit.BlazorUI.Extras/Services/Markdown/Extensions/BitMarkdownFootnoteRenderer.cs`:
- Line 34: Update BitMarkdownFootnoteRenderer to generate a unique
instance-scoped prefix and apply it consistently to the footnotes container id,
footnote ids, reference ids, link fragments, and aria-describedby values. Ensure
each BitMarkdownViewer instance uses its own prefix while preserving matching
links within that viewer.

In
`@src/BlazorUI/Bit.BlazorUI.Extras/Services/Markdown/Parsing/BitMarkdownTextMergeAstProcessor.cs`:
- Around line 28-35: Update the adjacent text-node merging logic in
BitMarkdownTextMergeAstProcessor so each contiguous run is collected and
concatenated once, rather than repeatedly appending the growing suffix to
previous.Text. Preserve the existing list order and removal behavior while
avoiding quadratic copying for large unresolved delimiter runs.

In
`@src/BlazorUI/Demo/Client/Bit.BlazorUI.Demo.Client.Core/Pages/Components/Extras/MarkdownViewer/BitMarkdownViewerDemo.razor.cs`:
- Around line 136-216: Update the UseEmojis entry to document the non-nullable
IReadOnlyDictionary<string, string> overrides parameter, then add a separate
entry for the parameterless BitMarkdownPipelineBuilder UseEmojis() overload with
its own description.
- Line 502: Update the Markdown image reference in BitMarkdownViewerDemo to use
the client package’s published
`/_content/Bit.BlazorUI.Demo.Client.Core/images/bit-logo-blue.png` asset path
instead of the root-relative `/images/bit-logo-blue.png` path.
- Around line 961-976: Update the displayed SCSS in example11ScssCode to prefix
the .custom-mdv selector with the ::deep wrapper, matching the live scoped
stylesheet while leaving the nested h3 and code rules unchanged.
