reStructuredText (RST) mode from 5 in 6

v6
1

Unfortunately v5’s RST mode for reStructuredText, markup similar to Markdown, is missing in (@codemirror/legacy-modes)[GitHub - codemirror/legacy-modes: Collection of ported legacy language modes for the CodeMirror code editor].

Any changes it will be backported to v6 too? I tried to understand how StreamParser works but it too much for me :slight_smile:

Thanks!

Not really. It uses an overlay mode, which isn’t something the StreamParser in v6 supports.

Does it mean that if reStructuredText highlighting is crutial for my app, I will have to stay with CM 5 forever?
