Uncolored: An HTML repository from artlantis

Next generation desktop rich content editor that saves documents with themes.
HTML & Markdown compatible. For Windows, OS X & Linux.

version 0.10.2 — Beta

With (Un)colored, the user focuses on the text & content types (titles, lists, etc.), then selects the document saving format. If the selected format is HTML, the user can choose an export document theme which defines the appearance of the saved document, that can be viewed directly in a web browser. If the selected format is Markdown, the document is saved as raw Markdown file, without theme. A saved HTML / Markdown document can be re-imported in the editor and re-exported, with theme or not, endlessly.

Supported Platforms

(Un)colored is provided for 64-bit systems only, on OS X 10.9 and later, Windows 7 and later, Linux (Ubuntu 12.04 and later, Debian 8 and later).
