It doesn't have footnotes. Some supersets do.

Right, but it's worth noting that those supersets are very common. I'd say it's actually less common to run into a "barebones" Markdown implementation these days than to run into a GFM or close-to-GFM one.

it looks like it aggregates all footnote definitions into one where it can be printed with the keyword 'notes' (hardcoding? too clever? what if you want to separate footnotes?)
I can’t see what this offers over pandoc markdown or it’s successor: https://htmlpreview.github.io/?https://github.com/jgm/djot/b...
All I get is a blank window in Safari.
Works on my iPad. Any JS restrictions in your browser?
[Error] SyntaxError: Unexpected token '='. Expected an opening '(' before a method's parameter list. (anonymous function) (libs.js:16558)

Some nice things:
* The footnotes are off to the side, so it's closer to the text that mentions it and it doesn't interrupt the flow of the main text.
* It uses colors, so it's pretty fast to visually jump to the right one.
* We keep the numbers too, for colorblind folks (and those using blue-light filters like f.lux)
* It works without javascript!
Our markdown->html renderer makes this happen by slicing up the page horizontally, one slice per header. Each slice then has a wide left column for the main text, and a narrow right column for the footnotes. Then if the user happens have javascript enabled, it position:absolute's the footnotes and lines them up a little more precisely with where they're mentioned.
Clicking on the number should ideal take me to footnote but it isn't. Instead its redirecting to a different page taking about scroll

This is some text with a footnote.[^1]

Anyone interested in footnotes might like the way we do it on the Vale site, for example: https://verdagon.dev/blog/making-regions-part-1-human-factor Some nice things: * The footnotes are off to the side, so it's closer to the text that mentions it and it doesn't interrupt the flow of the main text. * It uses colors, so it's pretty fast to visually jump to the right one. * We keep the numbers too, for colorblind fol…
