Our overall winner is a cross-platform application (OS X , Windows, Linux) built on HTML5 technology and we do cover other Windows Markdown editors at the end of the article.įirst let’s start with some tables. There are two tables in this article (originally I had one). As I use OS X and most of our team does as well (we have some Linux and a few Windows users: we have fewer people using Windows than Linux at this point), this article focuses on OS X Markdown editors. In the process I discovered a lot about Markdown and even editing. So I went looking for a Markdown editor which supported tables well for my team. This is what Markdown tables look like as plain text: | Application - Markdown Support | Active | Preview | Price | Non-app store version | Writing Experience | Footnotes | Strikethrough | | - | :-: | :-: | -: | :-: | :-: | - | - | | Typora | Superb | Yes | Free Beta | Yes | ++++ | Weak | Two Tildes | | TableIt | Yes | Yes | $19 | Yes | N/A | N/A | N/A | | Marked 2 | No | Yes | $10 | Yes | N/A | Yes | Yes, GFM | | BBEdit/TextWrangler | Yes | No | $50/free | Yes | ++ | No | No | I’d heard there was decent support for tables in Markdown but trying to edit Markdown tables long hand was not fun at all. This was preventing us from switching everything to Markdown. For some of our internal documents we desperately need tables. We use Markdown everywhere at Foliovision as our main project management software Teamwork offers excellent Markdown support.
