Highlights

  • Easy to use: Use Monaco kernel, optimize for Markdown editing, and have the same editing experience as VSCode.
  • Powerful: Support version control; Applets, runnable code blocks, tables, PlantUML, Drawio, macro replacements, etc., can be embedded in the document; support for OpenAI auto completion.
  • High compatibility: Data is saved as local Markdown files, and the extension functions are implemented in the original syntax of Markdown as far as possible.
  • Plug-in extension: Support users to write their own plug-ins to expand the functionality of the editor.
  • Encryption supported: Use encryption to save private files such as account number, and the password can be set separately for each file.
