It standardizes Markdown formatting (four-space indents, dash-based unordered lists, single-digit ordered list markers by default) while preserving or actively formatting MkDocs extensions like admonitions, content tabs, definition lists, mkdocstrings injection blocks and cross-references, and math notation via dollarmath, texmath, and amsmath.\n\nThe plugin integrates seamlessly into any mdformat workflow\u2014it auto-registers and requires no configuration. It handles both explicit formatting (admonitions with extra spacing for consistency with mkdocs styleguide, math block normalization) and implicit pass-through of PyMdown extensions like emoji, critic markup, and inline highlighting. It also supports optional extras for recommended companion formatters and provides flags like --no-mkdocs-math to disable math formatting and --ignore-missing-references to preserve ProgressBar syntax.","worth_installing":"Yes. Active maintenance, no vulnerabilities, low install friction, and permissive MIT license make this a safe choice. Install it if you format Markdown in MkDocs or Material for MkDocs projects and want a formatter that understands your project's syntax without corrupting extensions. Skip it if you don't use MkDocs or have no need for automated Markdown formatting."},"id":"mdformat-mkdocs","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/mdformat-mkdocs","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/mdformat-mkdocs.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/mdformat-mkdocs/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2026-08-02","license_spdx":"MIT","license_treatment":"permissive","name":"mdformat-mkdocs","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"An mdformat plugin for mkdocs and Material for MkDocs"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":158177,"position":10733,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"5.3.0"}
