Simply safely parse markdown content as html output by loading templatetags from martor/templatetags/martortags.py.
{% load martortags %}
{{ field_name|safe_markdown }}
# example
{{ post.description|safe_markdown }}
Don't miss to include the required css & js files before use.
You can take a look at this folder martor_demo/app/templates for more details.
The below example is a one of the way to implement it when you choose the MARTOR_THEME = 'bootstrap':
{% extends "bootstrap/base.html" %}
{% load static %}
{% load martortags %}
{% block css %}
<link href="{% static 'plugins/css/ace.min.css' %}" type="text/css" media="all" rel="stylesheet" />
<link href="{% static 'martor/css/martor.bootstrap.min.css' %}" type="text/css" media="all" rel="stylesheet" />
{% endblock %}
{% block content %}
<div class="martor-preview">
<h1>Title: {{ post.title }}</h1>
<p><b>Description:</b></p>
<hr />
{{ post.description|safe_markdown }}
</div>
{% endblock %}
{% block js %}
<script type="text/javascript" src="{% static 'plugins/js/highlight.min.js' %}"></script>
<script>
$('.martor-preview pre').each(function(i, block){
hljs.highlightBlock(block);
});
</script>
{% endblock %}
Different with Template Renderer, the Template Editor Form have more css & javascript dependencies.
{% extends "bootstrap/base.html" %}
{% load static %}
{% block css %}
<link href="{% static 'plugins/css/ace.min.css' %}" type="text/css" media="all" rel="stylesheet" />
<link href="{% static 'plugins/css/resizable.min.css' %}" type="text/css" media="all" rel="stylesheet" />
<link href="{% static 'martor/css/martor.bootstrap.min.css' %}" type="text/css" media="all" rel="stylesheet" />
{% endblock %}
{% block content %}
<form class="form" method="post">{% csrf_token %}
<div class="form-group">
{{ form.title }}
</div>
<div class="form-group">
{{ form.description }}
</div>
<div class="form-group">
<button class="btn btn-success">
<i class="save icon"></i> Save Post
</button>
</div>
</form>
{% endblock %}
{% block js %}
<script type="text/javascript" src="{% static 'plugins/js/ace.js' %}"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="{% static 'plugins/js/mode-markdown.js' %}"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="{% static 'plugins/js/ext-language_tools.js' %}"></script>
