What's everyone's favorite desktop markdown-specific editor?
Although I do a lot of my basic document drafting in #markdown, I don't use a dedicated app. Just a text editor (Kate, mainly) and then #Pandoc to render as PDF.
Wouldn't mind exploring a few options, especially those that make working with images a bit easier.
#Linux options, please.
Edit -- I see this list and plan to look at it closer: https://github.com/mundimark/awesome-markdown-editors
But would like to hear personal preferences and experiences.
Being a researcher, Do you even need Microsoft Office, if you have markdown available?
After understanding and working with #MarkDown I have reduced reliance on publishing applications and softwares. #Linux #FreeSoftwares #OpenSource

Enjoy!

Inspired by Stripe's documentation 'View as Markdown' feature, which is useful for open content access and reading structured #Markdown content into LLMs, I've added an example of this with https://Docsify-This.net
New Kitten release
• New: Lovely new icons¹ and new callouts in Kitten Settings²
• New: Markdown now supports attributes and bracketed spans³
• New: client-side `kitten` global with `trigger` function for triggering events on the server from the client. (Useful when streaming client-side JavaScript when using Kitten’s Streaming HTML⁴ workflow. e.g., when you have to use a client-only web API like the Clipboard API but you want to keep all your logic on your server-side page.⁵)
• Fixed: The bound render function returned by `KittenComponent` class’s `component` getter now correctly awaits asynchronous templates. (In Kitten, you don’t have to care whether your templates contain promises. Kitten handles all that for you.)
Enjoy!

⁵ e.g., See how I use this to implement a copy to clipboard button in the database page of Kitten’s Settings: https://codeberg.org/kitten/app/src/branch/main/web/%F0%9F%90%B1/settings%F0%9F%94%92/db/index.page.js#L33 Of course, you don’t have to use this and you can just write client-side JavaScript or use the built-in Alpine.js integration. e.g., how I do it on the (older) settings/identity page: https://codeberg.org/kitten/app/src/branch/main/web/%F0%9F%90%B1/settings%F0%9F%94%92/identity/index.page.js#L7
Coming soon: quite loving how much you can do in Markdown in Kitten now that I’ve added the ability to specify attributes and have bracketed spans.
Will release after I’m finished redoing the Kitten Settings pages with the new Kitten icons available at `kitten.icons`.
Microsoft’s MarkItDown Tool Gains MCP Server for AI Agent Access

If you like lmno.lol and wish you had an org-capture-like way of making a quick post in a Markdown file, I made a thing:
https://gist.github.com/pdxmph/4072412b8517b5d4e2b6c6fa4595d73c
Then I made a thing that does that with any of a list or directory of Markdown files:
The document shown here was formed completely in plaintext—formatted and typeset from a simple .md file without ever once opening Google Docs or MS Word.
This makes me happy because it hasn’t felt great to be so dependent on these for-profit corporate-led services in my creative expression.
oh ho hummm.
Progress.
status is: having too much fun drawing with gtk.snapshot tbh.
Managed to connect Obsidian to Nextcloud Notes on all my devices. Fortunately it saves files as md, so I don’t need to make any changes.
Do you use Obsidian for taking notes? You will like this
**basalt** — Manage Obsidian notes directly from the terminal
Supports multiple vaults, formatting markdown & more!

MarkItDown now offers an #MCP (Model Context Protocol) server for integration with #LLM applications like Claude Desktop. See https://github.com/microsoft/markitdown/tree/main/packages/markitdown-mcp for more information.
New to MarkItDown? It is a #Python tool for converting files and #office documents to #Markdown.

@3dprinting I've written the first draft of the assembly guide for the FilaBilly Dehumidifier. It's a Markdown document. I've got a couple dozen photos that I want to insert into the instructions, and I kind of want to make it look better than Markdown. So I'm thinking about word processors. It's been years since I used one. Maybe Apple Pages?
Meanwhile, the rest of the IKEA parts are coming this week. So progress is progressing.
