Typewriter replaces the Visual Editor with a simple Markdown editor for your posts and pages.
Typewriter completely removes the "Visual Editor" feature in WordPress and replaces it with a simple Markdown editor so that you can join sites like StackOverflow and Github in writing in the simple and growingly popular Markdown format.
For the more technical among you, Typewriter removes the TinyMCE editor and defaults to a Markdown specific "Text" editor and parses the output using MarkdownExtra.
Simple Install
- Login to WordPress and go to Plugins > Add New > Upload
- Upload typewriter.zip and activate
- Write using Markdown!
Manual Install

- Activate the plugin through the 'Plugins' menu in WordPress.

No. You can still use normal HTML in your posts and pages. Markdown will simply ignore the HTML and only parse any Markdown specific code that it finds.
Unfortunaetly your content will not be parsed by MarkdownExtra anymore and will appear like it does in the text editor. In this case you would need to convert your Markdown content to normal HTML.
