VS Code's built-in markdown extension only supports headings for document outline. This extends the outline to include fenced code blocks, quote blocks, and images.
Changes
Standalone parser (
markdownParser.ts): Pure TypeScript parser independent of VS Code APIEnhanced MarkdownOutlineProvider: Combines VS Code headings with custom parser output, nesting additional symbols under their parent headings
TDD test suite: Unit tests for parser (VS Code independent) + integration tests for provider
Example
▼ Getting Started
Code: bash
Quote: Important: Run from project root
