How can I integrate marp-vscode with other plugins like markdown extended / mermaid etc

[eizanprime]

With the normal markdown vscode preview I have added extensions such as the markdown extended extention (https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=jebbs.markdown-extended) for additional syntax, also mermaid etc... However these don't work in marp-vscode (I understand its a design decision)

I am not against using marp-cli, but working without the live preview is honestly annoying.. Is there any way to modify the code of the extension directly ? Or have the preview generated by a custom marp-cli ?

Thank you very much

Marp for VS Code does not allow integration with custom Marp/markdown-it plugins and VS Code extensions, due to security issues, and avoiding unexpected race conditions by VS Code extensions that are not designed for Marp.

The extension is open-sourced. If you have frontend developer skill, you can build your own version of the extension based on marp-team/marp-vscode.

If just you want to preview through Marp CLI with the customized engine, you can use --preview option.
