Markgiu

Markgiu is a very simple markdown editor, based on node-webkit.

This is my first experiment with node-webkit, and it leverages some popular js libraries that I commonly use in the browser, client side.

The code is very simple, it is based on a couple of knockoutjs View-Models (less than 500 lines of js+css+html code for the whole app, assets excluded).

See "powered by" section down here for a full listing of used libraries.

Markgiu has no native node dependencies, so it should be usable on any platform supported by node-webkit itself.

Features so far:

  • open and save files from local filesystem
  • html preview
  • multiple documents
  • detects content changes
  • basic support for adding a document with a wiki-style syntax

This README was created and edited with Markgiu :)

Disclaimer

This project does not aim to be a full-featured markdown editor. Use it at your own risk and abuse the code base at your wish.
