  • marktext

    📝A simple and elegant markdown editor, available for Linux, macOS and Windows.

  • Mark Text: https://github.com/marktext/marktext

  • markdown-mode

    Emacs Markdown Mode

  • Emacs makes autosaves by default and supports markdown-mode. Usually though it's nicer to put them in a central location by setting backup-directory-alist instead of the default behavior of putting them in directory you're working in of the original file. I stuff them into a directory ~/.saves with (setq backup-directory-alist(("." . "~/.saves")))`.

  • Geany

    A fast and lightweight IDE

  • One editor that I don't think gets enough attention is Geany. It is cross-platform and can be configured to be anything from a barebones distraction-free text editor to a lightweight IDE.
