How saving works
You open a dump, fix a paragraph, hit save — and the rest of the file stays familiar. Bliss doesn’t “helpfully” reformat everything you didn’t touch.
What you get
Change one paragraph and save: the regions you didn’t edit match the original file — same bullet markers, blank lines, escaping, and line endings. Only what you actually changed gets rewritten.
That keeps git diffs small, keeps chat exports recognizable, and keeps other Markdown tools happy with the same file.
Why it helps
- AI workflows — drafts from Claude or ChatGPT stay recognizable as the same
.mdyou downloaded. - Git — reviews show your edits, not a formatter’s opinions about every list marker.
- Interoperability — any CommonMark-aware tool can still read the file; Bliss doesn’t own the format.
Odd Markdown stays in the file
Things like footnotes, HTML, math, or Mermaid stay asraw blocks — still in your document, still editable as source. Bliss won’t delete them just to make the preview prettier.
The limit
Bliss won’t always preview every Markdown dialect the same way another app does. The promise is about your file: what you didn’t edit survives the trip through Bliss.
