## Features

- Interactive checkboxes in Markdown tables in Reading Mode.
- Highlights the entire row when at least one checkbox in that row is checked.
- Obsidian settings let you change the row highlight color.
- A toggle can enable or disable strikethrough for checked rows.
- Supports multiple checkboxes per cell and per row.
- Changes are immediately saved to the Markdown file.
- Robust mapping between rendered checkboxes and source Markdown.
- Works with any table structure, including complex layouts.

## Usage

- Install the plugin in Obsidian.
- Create a Markdown table with checkboxes such as `[ ]` and `[x]`.
- Click checkboxes in Reading Mode to toggle and save changes.
- Checked rows are highlighted automatically so completed items stand out visually.
- The default highlight color is a light pastel yellow.
- In the plugin settings, you can pick the highlight color and decide whether checked rows should be struck through.
- In Edit Mode, checkboxes remain text and can be toggled directly in the editor.

### Development

- Edit the TypeScript source files in the project directory.
- Install npm `npm install`.
- Run `npm run build` after making changes to produce the updated plugin files.
- Load the plugin in Obsidian's community plugins folder for testing.
