Research direction
Investigate the django markdown app package to understand how its widget is rendered. Explore Django's widget customization by creating a subclass of the existing widget and overriding its template or media files. Look into the admin forms in the app (likely in qa/forms.py or similar) to identify where the markdown widget is used. Consider adding a setting to allow users to specify custom CSS classes or a custom template path.
