Realtime Markdown Editor
What is this?
Type your markdown into the box on the left and immediately see it on the box on the right. If you send a friend a link to a pad URL (other than the home page) you both can edit the document at the same time!
How to use this?
- git clone https://github.com/btav/RealtimeMarkdownEditor
- cd RealtimeMarkdownEditor
- npm install
- bower install
- Run a redis server.
- node server.js
- Type anything after the slash in "http://localhost:3000" and just start creating markdown.
How was this built?
This website uses the following to work:
- Showdown - Converts markdown text to beautiful HTML
- ShareJS - allows for realtime editing of this textbox
- Node.js - backend framework
- Redis - where we store our markdown documents
- Twitter Bootstrap - makes everything a little prettier
