Tools for live coding Markdown

The course introduces several tools for live coding Markdown:

  • markdownlivepreview.com: A simple, web-based Markdown editor that provides a live preview of your Markdown text as you type.
  • dillinger.io: An online Markdown editor that supports live preview and allows importing/exporting files from sources like GitHub, Dropbox, and Google Drive.
  • stackedit.io: A more advanced, web-based Markdown editor with offline editing, cloud synchronization, and collaboration features.

Visual Studio Code (optional)

Additionally, Visual Studio Code (VS Code) is recommended for those who prefer a local editor, but this tool is not needed to do the exercises and can be installed after the course. VS Code supports Markdown with live preview and rendering capabilities.
