Hi! I want to create a field to support Markdown edition. Is there any way to achieve this within builder? Or should I make a custom input component?

Thanks!

Hello Nicolas,

As alternatives, you know you can use Rich Text HTML → [Custom fields - Builder.io](https://www.builder.io/c/docs/custom-fields#rich-text-html) or you can import Markdown → [https://www.builder.io/c/docs/markdown.](https://www.builder.io/c/docs/markdown)

If I am not mistaken, if you want a field to support Markdown you will need to create a Custom Input Component.

Thank you,
