• Portable Edition
  • One single standalone html file, no further dependencies
  • Download it to an usb drive and run it from there
  • No network connection required
  • No data is stored or transferred, so your data are private
  • only ~300kB due to hard compression
  • Syntax highlighting for code blocks
• Importing of existing Markdown files
• File download of Markdown and generated and prettyfied HTML
• Synchronous Scrolling for long files
• Partial support for mobile devices, that's the reason why the editor is above the preview

This application uses the marked library to convert markdown to html. It utilises the markup syntax from github flavored markdown where you also will find some basic examples. If you need the full reference, visit John Gruber's site.

Typically people who read from left to right look to the left side first. So it lets you focus on the result, not on your code.

This application implements modern web technologies. Older browsers which cannot run this app are loosers. Recommendation: use a newer browser.

No! Please implement it yourself and send me a pull request. Pull Requests will only accepted if they adapt current source structure and code style.

Before install, make sure you have installed bower, npm and gulp globally.

To begin with development, just type

npm install
bower install
make

in console.

make runs a gulp task that sets up some file watchers so you can just modify the source files and everything will be compiled together automatically.

The compiled file contains the following resources:

• JavaScript (marked, Angular Light, CodeMirror)
• Compiled and uncss'd CSS
• Embedded Ubuntu Font

Embedded into the application are sources from the following software:

• Bootstrap (MIT-License)
• Bootswatch (MIT-License)
• Angular Light (MIT-License)
• CodeMirror (MIT-License)
• marked (MIT-License)
• lz-string (WTFPL)
• Ubuntu Font Family (Ubuntu Font License)

Also thanks to the developers of the following software:

• Coffee-Script
• LessCSS
• UnCSS
• gulp
