Could you try running
npm install
before trying once more? And if that still doesn't work, could you verify that the plugin shows up in both your
package.json
file and your
sanity.json
file?

Do you see the plugin listed in your studio folder's
package.json
and
sanity.json
files?

If you cloned the entire starter repo (i.e. didn't create this from sanity.io/create ), you'll want to ensure to install the plugin in the
/template/studio
folder, not in the monorepo root. Could you try if installing it in your studio root folder adds the plugin to the files mentioned above?

Np! You might want to re-create the starter from sanity.io/create to avoid any confusion by our starter template setup - especially when it comes to deploying to production later. Do feel free to continue this way if you prefer though. We'll be here to clarify anything if needed 🙂

Hi Subha, the markdown plugin takes care of markdown on the studio side, but not on the front-end side. You could try using this component for example: https://github.com/remarkjs/react-markdown 🙂
