Feature Request: Add text color (font color) support with a toolbar button and color picker
Expected behavior: Add a Font Color button (and optionally a Background Color button) to the toolbar.
Clicking the button opens a color picker/palette allowing the user to choose any color.
After selecting a color, the user can highlight any text in the editor, and the selected text will immediately change to that color in both Live Preview and Reading View.
Markdown representation (preferred implementation):
The generated Markdown should remain clean and compatible. A very elegant and widely-adopted solution already exists:
https://github.com/zhangchengk/md-color Example syntax it produces:
This is <font color="#ff0000">red text</font>
This is <font color="#00ff00">green text</font>
or the shorter custom variant: markdown
This is [#ff0000]colored text[]
This is [#0000ff background=#ffff0066]highlighted text[]
Why this would be valuable:
Many users (especially students, note-takers, and knowledge-base builders) rely heavily on color coding. Having a toolbar button + color picker would dramatically improve the editing experience without sacrificing Markdown compatibility.Thank you for considering this feature!
