MarkOvEditor

MarkOvEditor is a simplistic markdown and emacs org mode editor with a viewer to see the changes. This app was inspired by craftzdog markdown editor tutorial, but I wanted to implement a org mode support for emacs along with markdown.

Note: Using chakra seemed like an overkill by the end of the project 😅.

Technolgies used:

• Electron js
• React js
• Recoil js
• Chakra UI
• Unified System

How to use the application:

• The application uses markdown by default if the file isn't saved.
• saving the file enables the user to change the compiler used. eg: saving as .org allows one to use the org compiler and .md uses the markdown to compile it to html.
• It initially converts the source to html then to react components.

What I learned throughout this project:

• How unified js converts markdown into html
• AST tree of markdown and how the compiler works.
• How to build native applications using electron js.

Todo:

• Add local image support
