You can customize the editor to you liking in the Editor preferences pane: 7 I can do inline math like this: \( 1 + 1 \) or this (in MathML): 1 + 1, and block math: I can also render TeX-like math syntaxes, if you allow me to.

See the Fenced Code Block section if you haven’t! You have already seen how I can highlight your fenced code blocks. Very useful if you’re a typography freak like I am. The Smartypants extension automatically transforms straight quotes ( " and ') in your text into typographer’s quotes ( “, ”, ‘, and ’) according to the context. The following is a list of optional inline markups supported: Option name

See relevant sections on the official site for a full list of supported syntaxes. I support many popular languages as well as some generic syntax descriptions that can be used if your language of choice is not supported. The language ID will be used to highlight the code inside if you tick the Enable highlighting in code blocks option. In either case, you can add an optional language ID at the end of the first line: You can also use waves ( ~) instead of back ticks ( `): print('Hello world!') This is a fenced code block: p 'Hello world!' The left- and right-most pipes ( |) are only aesthetic, and can be omitted. You can align cell contents with syntax like this: Left Aligned You can also specify extra HTML rendering options through the Rendering pane:Īnd you can also configure various behaviors in the General preferences pane. Various non-standard ones can also be turned on/off from the Markdown preference pane: I support all the original Markdown syntaxes.
I render your Markdown contents real-time into HTML, and display them in a preview panel. MacDown is created as a simple-to-use editor for Markdown documents. The original Markdown syntax specification can be found here. Markdown is a plain text formatting syntax created by John Gruber, aiming to provide a easy-to-read and feasible markup. Hello there! I’m MacDown, the open source Markdown editor for OS X. I will continue to improve it in the future. You can see there are still issues, some of them require additional implementation at this side, and others are caused by bugs in MacDown and Hoedown. I’ve attached MacDown’s help.md file as a post so that you can get an idea how compatible this thing is currently. I am fairly satisfied with the current result, and might talk more about it in detail in the future, given the time.
I also decided to build the functionality myself instead of using an existing service/library, hoping to provide some ideas if somebody wish to make his/her own blogging/CMS platform compatible with MacDown. This way I can talk about topics on MacDown and Markdown-related things in general, in English, at a dedicated space. So, I decided that MacDown should have a blog. I haven’t tried many other online services, but as far as I know there’s nothing that fits the asker’s requirement (which is not saying those platforms are bad-they are just incompatible). While the configuration does somehow resemble MacDown’s, they are still different, and at times incompatible with each other. I host my own personal site/blog, and it uses a custom renderer to process Markdown. One particular instance is when I got asked whether I can recommend a blogging platform that supports extensions MacDown has. Some of them have been added as FAQ, but there are more that don’t fit, and they need a good place to the public. For those I can answer (not a lot, really), many are common enough that I got asked multiple times. But I am by no means an expert on Markdown, let alone many other topics people ask me about, and I’m sorry I can’t answer many of your questions. I love them, and have tried (and will continue to try) answering them the best I could. I have also received a lot of emails/tweets/DMs recently for MacDown. So I figured that it’d be better to find somewhere else in the future. And the post doesn’t really fit well with other posts there either, as my personal blog targets more toward Chinese audience. But it seems a bit queer, to say at least, to use my personal blog for that purpose. Back when I released MacDown 0.2 I felt that we have too much to fit inside the release note, so I wrote a blog post for it.
