How to Set Up and Use Better Markdown
bm.md is a Markdown formatting and typography assistant that transforms plain Markdown into polished content ready for WeChat public accounts, Zhihu, Juejin, web pages, and image exports. It offers 14 typography styles, real-time preview, and multi-platform copy support so writers and developers can produce platform-perfect content without manual reformatting. The MCP integration exposes Markdown rendering, extraction, and linting capabilities to AI assistants, enabling automated document processing pipelines.
Prerequisites
- Node.js 18+ and pnpm installed
- An MCP-compatible client such as Claude Desktop or Cursor
- Git to clone the repository for local development or CLI use
Clone and install the repository
Clone the bm.md repository and install dependencies using pnpm. The project uses TanStack Start and Vite 7 as its build foundation.
git clone https://github.com/miantiao-me/bm.md.git
cd bm.md
pnpm installStart the development server
Run the local development server to access the Markdown editor and preview interface at http://localhost:2663.
pnpm devUse the CLI tool for rendering
The bmmd CLI allows you to render Markdown files to a specific platform format, extract content, or lint and auto-fix typography issues without opening the browser.
pnpm dlx bmmd render article.md --platform wechat --output article.html
cat article.md | pnpm dlx bmmd extract
pnpm dlx bmmd lint article.md --fixBuild for production deployment
Build the application for production. The static client assets go to dist/client and the server function to dist/server/server.js.
pnpm run buildConfigure the MCP client
Add the bm.md MCP server to your Claude Desktop or other MCP client configuration file so AI assistants can invoke its Markdown processing capabilities.
Better Markdown Examples
Client configuration
Add this block to your claude_desktop_config.json to enable bm.md Markdown processing via MCP. The server is invoked using npx with the bmmd package.
{
"mcpServers": {
"bm-md": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["bm-md"]
}
}
}Prompts to try
Use these prompts in your MCP-enabled AI assistant after connecting the bm.md server.
- "Format this Markdown article for WeChat public account style with proper typography."
- "Convert my blog post Markdown to Zhihu column format."
- "Lint and fix the typography issues in this Markdown document."
- "Export this Markdown content as an HTML page optimized for web reading."Troubleshooting Better Markdown
pnpm install fails with workspace errors
Make sure you are using pnpm version 8 or later. Run `npm install -g pnpm` to update, then retry installation from the repository root.
CLI bmmd command not found
Run `pnpm dlx bmmd` instead of a global install, or install globally with `npm install -g bmmd` after the package is published to npm.
Rendered WeChat output looks unstyled
Ensure you specify the correct --platform flag (wechat, zhihu, juejin). WeChat requires inline styles; check that your Markdown does not contain unsupported block elements like raw HTML.
