Frequently asked questions
Why does the standard use `-`?+
Most popular linters (markdownlint, prettier) default to `-`. It's also the easiest to type.
Will Pro support custom markers?+
Yes. A Pro option to choose `-`, `*`, or `+` per project is on the roadmap.
Does this affect ordered lists?+
No. Ordered lists (1. 2. 3.) aren't touched — only unordered list markers.
