While using markdown syntax, it would be wonderful creating Tables, inserting and removing columns, rows, etc. https://www.markdownguide.org/extended-syntax/

Ehsan @ Eraser your sneak peek looks fantastic. Love that bullet points, line breaks and code styling within cells already work!
I previously discussed potential features with Shin on Slack. My biggest wish for a future iteration is column-specific text alignment, cause I need these number values aligned properly. This Markdown table editor might inspire https://tablesgenerator.com/markdown_tables
Keep up the great work!

Posting my full feature wishlist for others to add:
Most important functionality I'd love in Eraser:
● per-column text alignment (left/right/center)
● in-cell text formatting allowed (bold, italics, maybe underline)
● in-cell line breaks allowed
Nice to have:
● richer in-cell text formatting options (bullet list; numbered list; h1, h2, etc. headings)
Potentially interesting, but not important to me:
● pasting tables copied from MS Excel, Google Sheets, Confluence, etc.
● coloring cell backgrounds
● modifying grid lines thickness / color / stroke (dotted, dashed, etc.)

Remi: Glad to hear it Remi! Thanks for the very detailed communication here. Super helpful input. We currently expect to have in-cell text formatting and in-cell line breaks for v1. Per-column text-alignment will hopefully make it in by v2.

Agreed! I was trying to show Pros and Cons comparison of few architecture solutions but the current markdown note was not able to display table like presentation.

The only thing eraser is missing for me right now.

Also -- note you can copy a table and paste into the diagram and magically generate a chart. Ideally, we could create a markdown chart in Notes view, and right-click to render it as a Chart in a Figure.
