Implement live markdown rendering using slate.js

I'm writing a markdown text editor using slate.js. I'm trying to implement the following live-rendering effect (from Typora):

As you can see,

1. When I'm typing, the text is turning to bold automatically.
2. When I hit the space key, the four asterisks disappeared, only the text itself is visible.
3. When I focus the cursor back to the text, the asterisks shows up again (so I can modify them).

I've already implemented the first item thanks to the example of MarkdownPreview, here is the code of it (take from the slate repository):

import Prism from 'prismjs'
import React, { useCallback, useMemo } from 'react'
import { Slate, Editable, withReact } from 'slate-react'
import { Text, createEditor, Descendant } from 'slate'
import { withHistory } from 'slate-history'
import { css } from '@emotion/css'

// eslint-disable-next-line
;Prism.languages.markdown=Prism.languages.extend("markup",{}),Prism.languages.insertBefore("markdown","prolog",{blockquote:{pattern:/^>(?:[\t ]*>)*/m,alias:"punctuation"},code:[{pattern:/^(?: {4}|\t).+/m,alias:"keyword"},{pattern:/``.+?``|`[^`\n]+`/,alias:"keyword"}],title:[{pattern:/\w+.*(?:\r?\n|\r)(?:==+|--+)/,alias:"important",inside:{punctuation:/==+$|--+$/}},{pattern:/(^\s*)#+.+/m,lookbehind:!0,alias:"important",inside:{punctuation:/^#+|#+$/}}],hr:{pattern:/(^\s*)([*-])([\t ]*\2){2,}(?=\s*$)/m,lookbehind:!0,alias:"punctuation"},list:{pattern:/(^\s*)(?:[*+-]|\d+\.)(?=[\t ].)/m,lookbehind:!0,alias:"punctuation"},"url-reference":{pattern:/!?\[[^\]]+\]:[\t ]+(?:\S+|<(?:\\.|[^>\\])+>)(?:[\t ]+(?:"(?:\\.|[^"\\])*"|'(?:\\.|[^'\\])*'|\((?:\\.|[^)\\])*\)))?/,inside:{variable:{pattern:/^(!?\[)[^\]]+/,lookbehind:!0},string:/(?:"(?:\\.|[^"\\])*"|'(?:\\.|[^'\\])*'|\((?:\\.|[^)\\])*\))$/,punctuation:/^[\[\]!:]|[<>]/},alias:"url"},bold:{pattern:/(^|[^\\])(\*\*|__)(?:(?:\r?\n|\r)(?!\r?\n|\r)|.)+?\2/,lookbehind:!0,inside:{punctuation:/^\*\*|^__|\*\*$|__$/}},italic:{pattern:/(^|[^\\])([*_])(?:(?:\r?\n|\r)(?!\r?\n|\r)|.)+?\2/,lookbehind:!0,inside:{punctuation:/^[*_]|[*_]$/}},url:{pattern:/!?\[[^\]]+\](?:\([^\s)]+(?:[\t ]+"(?:\\.|[^"\\])*")?\)| ?\[[^\]\n]*\])/,inside:{variable:{pattern:/(!?\[)[^\]]+(?=\]$)/,lookbehind:!0},string:{pattern:/"(?:\\.|[^"\\])*"(?=\)$)/}}}}),Prism.languages.markdown.bold.inside.url=Prism.util.clone(Prism.languages.markdown.url),Prism.languages.markdown.italic.inside.url=Prism.util.clone(Prism.languages.markdown.url),Prism.languages.markdown.bold.inside.italic=Prism.util.clone(Prism.languages.markdown.italic),Prism.languages.markdown.italic.inside.bold=Prism.util.clone(Prism.languages.markdown.bold); // prettier-ignore

const MarkdownPreviewExample = () => {
  const renderLeaf = useCallback(props => <Leaf {...props} />, [])
  const editor = useMemo(() => withHistory(withReact(createEditor())), [])
  const decorate = useCallback(([node, path]) => {
    const ranges = []

    if (!Text.isText(node)) {
      return ranges
    }

    const getLength = token => {
      if (typeof token === 'string') {
        return token.length
      } else if (typeof token.content === 'string') {
        return token.content.length
      } else {
        return token.content.reduce((l, t) => l + getLength(t), 0)
      }
    }

    const tokens = Prism.tokenize(node.text, Prism.languages.markdown)
    let start = 0

    for (const token of tokens) {
      const length = getLength(token)
      const end = start + length

      if (typeof token !== 'string') {

          'Slate is flexible enough to add **decorations** that can format text based on its content. For example, this editor has **Markdown** preview decorations on it, to make it _dead_ simple to make an editor with built-in Markdown previewing.',

export default MarkdownPreviewExample

My question is, how can I implement the second and third items? I've been thinking about it for a long time, but didn't find any good way to achieve them.
