Comment on Erato - simple and beautiful markdown editor

Comments

I've been using dillinger for a while, and I'm very happy with it: http://dillinger.io/

Also, it is open source: https://github.com/joemccann/dillinger

It appears to only be distributed as a web app. Apples and oranges. Also the editor looks like a code editor (Erato also kind of does, but it has a margin and it doesn't have line numbers by default).

I wonder if Erato is also just using the Ace editor as that preview on the side looks like a webview. If they did that's cool, but then this basically the same thing as Dillinger.

Erato uses a custom editor, not Ace.

Pretty good!

It's great to be able to run it locally too, so I can run it offline! But how do you open another file when you're offline? (So no dropbox etc)
