Frequently asked questions
Will my ordered lists be renumbered?+
Existing numbering is preserved. Most renderers ignore the actual numbers and use sequence position.
Does this break code-block list samples?+
No. Code blocks are left untouched — the cleanup only applies to actual Markdown list syntax outside code fences.
Can I choose between markers?+
The default normalizes to `-` since it's the most widely supported and easiest to type.
