Perhaps "practical" is not the word, but I don't think using
markdown=1 is an elegant solution for two reasons:
1.
Markdown is supposed to be a simple and elegant solution for rich text editing without the need to know HTML. If you are already using html and understand the basics, it might be good practice to stick to HTML within a content block already started as HTML. Markdown was originally invented to be used
instead of html (for basic rich text editing), and mixing them together looks a bit messy (because you are mixing two syntaxes), and kinda defeats the purpose of markdown.
2. The
markdown=1 attribute would have to be applied on every html tag where you intend to use markdown inside:
<div class='medium-6 columns' markdown=1>
## markdown header
<div data-alert class="alert-box success" markdown=1>
**strong markdown text**
</div>
</div>
Having said the above, which is a coder/aesthetic perspective, there is no reason you can't use markdown=1 where it suits you. I often use markdown and html on the same page myself, because markdown is faster and cleaner for basic formatting, but HTML is obviously required for advanced or custom html content. Personally, I would probably do something like this:
## My title markdown
** Let's stick to markdown when possible ok! **
* Hey let's create a markdown list
* Unicorn
* Pegasus
<div class="medium-6 columns">
<h2>Here is some HTML</h2>
I prefer to stick with html tags within a html block.
<div data-alert class="alert-box success">
<strong>You bet!</strong>
</div>
</div>
