I split this into a separate discussion. Indeed it looks like Stack Exchange and Community flavors of markdown do not support tables yet:
Is there any markdown to create tables?
We will look into it. It would be good to have especially with tools like THIS. Perhaps a solution could be placing WL generated TeX output between $$ tags. For example:
TeXForm[
 TableForm[
  {{A, B},
   {C, D}}
  ]
 ]
  \begin{array}{cc}
 A & B \\
 C & D \\
\end{array}
so it should look like a table but it does not - though it does in preview:
$$
\begin{array}{cc}
 A & B \
 C & D \
\end{array}
$$
And I agree - GitHub syntax integration would be nice. Any further ideas are welcome.
