Manual

Five chapters. Each one can be downloaded as .md — drop it back into the editor and you have a ready-made sample document.

This manual covers what this editor actually does, not Markdown in general. If you just want to start writing, chapter one is enough; the other four work as reference.

The editor needs no install and no account — open the editor and it runs.

• Quick start
  From opening a folder to hitting Ctrl+S and overwriting the original file — the whole flow in five steps.
• Syntax reference
  The syntax this editor's preview actually supports, on one page: headings, emphasis, lists, tables, code blocks, task lists.
• YAML front matter
  That block of metadata fenced by --- at the top of a file. Here it renders as a card instead of being mangled by the parser.
• Dual preview
  Two documents side by side: load a reference file, authorize a base folder, scroll both panes proportionally, and switch to reading mode.
• Browsers and file access
  What the File System Access API is, why Firefox and Safari can only download, and why every reload asks for permission again.
• FAQ
  Are files uploaded, why only Chromium can save in place, does it work on a phone, can it run offline — answered in one place.
