Rich Markdown editor StackEdit’s Markdown syntax highlighting is unique. The refined text formatting of the editor helps you visualize the final rendering of your files.

Simple, fast, in-browser, syncs with Google, GitHub, etc. Awesome.
Probably my favorite editor for writing latex among other tools like
Overleaf
Also has a really nice highlighting syntax that I really like using
Anki cards with after
==operators. So I can figure out what to makeAlso, has a really nice notation for doing citations, really useful if you do research papers with things like
Citation Machine
Has support for markdown
code snippets tooI used this previously a few years back and its improved a lot since then. The author merged his other
Classeur app with this one
I use this with
PhraseExpress so I can write math formulas faster than I can by hand, works pretty well too.
I think I might use this as my do all my course notes
I like that its still mostly markdown format so I can just dump my notes in github if I wanted too, and use a latex to image processor

StackEdit 5 became a little worst then 4 version: You need use CouchDB, GitHub, GitLab, Google Drive account to sync workspaces, JSON export now affects only files. It's so inconvenient when you're clearing browser storage:(

Are you saying that this software is only operable by programmers? And not ordinary mortals who might be being addressed as the Git(Hub) on the Couch(DB)?

I like the ability to see my MD rendered on the side in a simplistic interface. I can push my blog posts directly to Blogspot. It saves drafts of my files in my google drive.
