It promises to be a distraction-free editor, and so far I must agree. Why? Well, it has a nice little counter at the bottom that keeps track of the number of words, and gives you an estimated reading time (or speaking time) for the document, and I just love that.īut that’s just one of the unique features Quabel offers. While I wrote the previous sections initially in StackEdit, I will write this one fully in Quabel. It’s actually a great little editor if you look beyond the quirks, and the real-time collaboration part is really well done. WriteURL also allows for working offline, and all of your documents are saved on the server (as long as you have the link). You can also embed a document on a web page. But, you can also share a read-only link where people can watch how you fill in the document (which screams for an office prank), or publish a version of your work. You need to share a public link with edit rights to make this work.

You need two separate windows if you want to see the real-time action, and any changes I did on one window were immediately shown on my second window (in a different browser).

So it could use some work on the editor itself, but what’s more important is how the real-time collaboration works.

Registration also gives you live preview for HTML code which is pretty convenient but not necessarily a mandatory feature. When you register you get extra features like auto-save, being able to save to Dropbox, easy export to Tumblr, and public sharing of your. You can use Markable without registration, but functionality will be very limited. It does allow you to see the results of your work on the right of your screen. It offers a very clean interface, but there are no shortcuts, so unless you are familiar with the Markdown syntax you might want to use their cheat sheet or have another cheat sheet handy. Markable is another MarkDown editor, but this one is more suited for those who still prefer to code in Notepad. And I love the way it displays the final article on the right and if you scroll either of the two views, the other view will follow to scroll to the correct place as well.

In the end it’s a great product, not only for the Markdown format but for general use as well. But this is a known issue they are working on so we may see an improvement some day. It underlines misspelled words, but relies on your browser for correcting. The only downside of StackEdit is that it doesn’t have an integrated spell checker that works properly. Also, you don’t need to register and you can start working right away.

It uses shortcuts via a GUI, offers advanced settings for templating, and (very important) is really convenient when you have an unreliable connection because of its offline functionality. You can also use it for making PDFs, which is a nice addition. And, you can publish from within StackEdit to WordPress, Tumblr, Github etc. You can connect StackEdit to Google Drive or Dropbox, and use auto-sync as a backup. Markdown separates style and content, and with the right plugin allows for effortless copying into your favorite CMS. StackEdit is a very easy to work with editor (the tool) for making documents in Markdown format, which my editor (the person) prefers.
