Using Dillinger as a FREE Markdown Editor

Written by .NET Trainer & Instructor , Thursday, March 3, 2016 at 10:34 PM

I just Love Markdown. I’m a Markdown fan. Markdown is a plain text formatting syntax designed so that it can be converted to HTML. Markdown syntax is pretty easy to learn and use. If you are a developer then you would have already used it.

Why use Markdown

It’s easy to learn and use
It’s fast: Faster than any rich-text editor
It’s clean: Generates perfectly-formed HTML

How can you use Markdown

For writing blog posts: Every blogging system has support to convert Markdown syntax into HTML
For writing project documentations on GitHub
For writing emails
For taking notes and then exporting them as a PDF file or Styled HTML document

I use MarkdownPad which is a Paid Markdown editor.
