FAQ

Can a cell contain a | character?

Yes, it's escaped automatically as \| so the table structure doesn't break.

Can I use line breaks in a cell?

Markdown tables don't support multi-line cells; use a <br> tag if needed.

Can I edit an existing table?

Use the Markdown Table Formatter to realign existing tables.
