This is the API call we'll need to use:
{
"action": "parse",
"page": "Page being previewed",
"templatesandboxtitle": "Template:Template being edited",
"templatesandboxtext": "New wikitext of template being edited"
}Comment Actions
Is anything happening here? I have made a lot of unnecessary template edits already because of the lack of a preview function. If it is not introduced, I guess template pages should either use the CodeEditor or the old wikitext mode per default , otherwise template editing will never properly work.

More styles should be added to improve the appearance, and wikipage.content hook should be fired.

IMHO, parser output should be wrapped with mw-body and mw-body-content class to import appearance, and by saying "and wikipage.content hook should be fired" I mean if this hook isn't fired, some gadgets like Reference Tooltips won't function.
UPD: I think the TitleInputWidget should also set $overlay: true so the suggestion area would be wider.

Categories should also be visible in the preview because someone may want to test correct categorization using a template.

I think this has been fixed by the patches back in 2021 (T153367#7051026)? I don't see why it hasn't been closed then. Anyway, thanks (belatedly) for working on this!

I just noticed that this was implemented without setting the preview mode for the parse call. I'll create a separate ticket for that.
