(iodide dev here) Yeah, that's a good point. We called it JSMD before we even thought of starting Pyodide, and in hindsight seems a bit constricting.

Thanks for your comment. It is probably not too late to change the name because it's alpha yet. It may be misleading for newcomers, when JSMD tries to support even more languages through plugins.

Other than that I love the design of the syntax, especially raw cell seem so great to me. I'm often supersized by the fact that both Markdown and Jupyter don't have the official ways to insert comments. Fetch cell is also a smart idea.
