A place to actually write
Most Markdown editors want to be your workspace: accounts, sync, folders, a subscription. This one is a tab you open when you have something to write and close when you are finished. Nothing to install, nothing to sign into, nothing retained afterwards.
The writing surface
The toolbar covers the formatting you reach for most — bold, italic, headings, lists, links, code blocks and blockquotes — applied to your selection, so you can write prose and add structure without stopping to remember syntax.
Useful details while drafting:
- Tab inserts an indent rather than jumping focus out of the editor, so nested lists behave
- The live pane updates as you type, which catches a broken link or an unclosed code fence immediately
- A running word and character count sits under the editor for anything written to a limit
- Open file loads an existing draft to continue, and drag-and-drop works too
Writing Markdown well
A few habits that make drafts export cleanly:
One H1, at the top. It becomes the document title on export. Sections below it should be H2, subsections H3 — skipping levels produces odd-looking PDFs and confuses screen readers.
Label your code fences. Writing ```python rather than a bare ``` gives the block a language label and helps readers know what they are looking at.
Blank lines matter. A list immediately after a paragraph with no blank line between them frequently will not render as a list. When something looks wrong in the preview, a missing blank line is the usual cause.
Write links inline as you go. Coming back to add them later is how drafts end up with placeholder text still in them.
When the draft is done
Export straight to PDF for sharing, DOCX for anyone who needs to edit in Word, or HTML for a CMS. The filename field sets the name of the downloaded file.
