Thanks for sharing! I’ve added LightPaper to my curated list of Markdown editors.

I’m maintaining a repo¹ with a collection of Markdown resources, listing the abundances of 𝗠⬇ dialects, parsers, editors², stylesheets, … Please feel free to commit!

Nice lists!

Maybe you can enable the GitHub wiki so that others can edit them using "Markdown" too?

The lists are provided in yet another plain text format (YAML). Reading them using the GitHub website is not so nice, and it feels weird especially as it's about Markdown a direct format-competitor..


Thanks for the hint! Done:

If there were only that much support for YAML (as regards parsers, stylesheets, and integration in e.g. Github), as there is for MD…

IMO, Markdown is for text (i.e. continuous reading), while YAML is for structured data (not sequentially read, but randomly accessed/queried).


Boo hoo you missed my hat in this ring! ;)

I'd submit a pull request to your repo, but I'm too lazy...



Would you mind to add http://NoteHub.org to your list (free & OSS hosting for MD pages)?


Thanks! Added: https://github.com/rhythmus/markdown-resources/blob/master/m...

Nice project, and tastefully executed! Plus I can definitely see the usefulness of anonymous one-off publishing, with all the benefits of Markdown formatting…

Any particular reason why you picked Pagedown.js for Markdown parsing (it supports plain Markdown only, hence no support for tables)? Maybe have a look at some alternatives? — https://github.com/rhythmus/markdown-resources/blob/master/m...

Best of luck with the project!


Thanks a lot! I don't remember whyI picked Pagedown.js, but I'll definitely take a look on the alternatives on your list.
