Sublime Text 3: bold text in plain text mode

Question

I'm pretty new in Sublime Text 3, and I know it allows for a wide customization.

I would like to know how I could make some part of the text bold, italic or underlined, or even coloured, when I'm writing a plain text. It may sound dumb, but I have no idea how to do it and whether I can do it.

Thank you!

Your best bet is to use the MarkdownPreview plugin combined with the LiveReload plugin to display Markdown text written in Sublime as HTML displayed in your web browser. Unfortunately there isn't anything at this time that can display rendered HTML or Markdown in Sublime itself.

EDIT Apparently there is also MarkdownLivePreview , which I wasn't aware of before. I haven't tested it yet, but it's very popular, so you might want to try it.
