MarkText

MarkText is an open source Markdown editor for OS X, released under the MIT license. It is inspired by outstanding markdown editor Typora.

Why write another Markdown editor ?

Typora is so excellent that I love it so much that I cannot bear to part with it. But in the process of using Typora, I still find some small problems. As a programmer, I can't wait to fix these problems, because Typora is not an open source software. So I decided to write a self - used markdown editor and open source for all the people who love markdown.
As mentioned above, MarkText will be open source indefinitely. It is also hoped that all markdown lovers can contribute their own code, and develop MarkText into a popular markdown editor.
There are many markdown editors, and each editor has its own characteristics, but it is also difficult to satisfy all makdown users' needs. I hope MarkText can satisfy markdown users' needs as much as possible. Although the latest MarkText is still not perfect, but we are trying to make it perfect.
