I tried building something similar to your product a couple years ago, but found CodeMirror syntax highlighting lacking since you couldn't style multiple lines which seemed like a must for Markdown.

E.g. try setex headers:

    Header
    ======
Only the ===== are styled as a header in Markdownify. Did you manage to solve it in Storytella? (too lazy to sign up and check myself, sorry.)

I've always used the starting hash header form:

# Header

## Header

So I haven't come across that issue before. Thanks for pointing out a possible issue!

I've just had a look at the Storytella editor using the === style of headers and it doesn't work. You can see it for yourself in the editor demo, here:
