Qt adds first-class Markdown to QTextDocument in Qt 5.14 with a setMarkdown API that defaults to the GitHub dialect and accepts flags like no-HTML; parsing uses bundled md4c v0.43 (shipped in 5.15). Demos show both Widgets and Qt Quick WYSIWYG editors, a Netbook app with checkbox toggles (Ctrl+K), saving resources alongside files, and a KIO IPFS KIO slave for pinning/publishing via IPFS/IPNS and DNSLink; markdown writer still receives bug fixes.
