What's New

We've significantly expanded our diagram capabilities! MD Editor now supports four powerful diagramming formats, making it easier than ever to create professional visualizations for your technical documentation.

Supported Diagram Types:

• Mermaid: Flowcharts, sequence diagrams, Gantt charts, state diagrams, and more
• Graphviz/DOT: Complex graph structures, network diagrams, and hierarchical layouts
• Markmap: Interactive mind maps and hierarchical visualizations

Key Features:

• Real-time preview in the editor
• Seamless export to HTML, PDF, DOCX, and other formats
• Diagrams automatically rendered as high-quality images during export
• Syntax highlighting for all diagram types
• Support for custom themes and styling options

Simply use a code block with the diagram language (mermaid, graphviz, dot, or markmap), and MD Editor will render it automatically. Your diagrams will look perfect whether you're viewing them in the editor or exporting to share with others.

We've introduced a context menu that adapts to what you're working with! Instead of showing the same generic options everywhere, MD Editor now detects the type of content you've selected and presents relevant actions tailored to that specific content.

Smart Content Detection:

• Code Blocks: Get options to prettify, identify language, convert, format, or explain code with AI
• Tables: Access table-specific formatting and improvement tools
• Links & URLs: Quick edit and management actions for hyperlinks
• Headings: Title case formatting and writing improvement suggestions
• Inline Code: Specialized handling for code snippets
• Images: Image-specific editing and conversion options
• Regular Text: General writing improvement and formatting tools

This context-aware system means you'll always see the most relevant actions for your current selection, making your writing workflow faster and more intuitive. Right-click on any content to see context-specific options that actually make sense for what you're editing.

We are excited to announce that you can now log in to MD Editor using your GitHub account! This feature look a long time to develop, but since this platform is built for developers, it only makes sense to support GitHub login.

This in in addition to our existing login methods, which include email/password and Google, Amazon and Apple login.

We've completely redesigned the share experience to make exporting and publishing your content more intuitive and efficient. The new two-step process lets you first choose your destination, then select the appropriate format.

New sharing workflow:

• Destination-First Selection: Choose where you want to share (Local, GitHub, AWS S3, Dropbox, Medium, Dev.to)
• Smart Format Filtering: Only see formats supported by your chosen destination
• Clear Export Options: No more confusion about what formats work where
• Expanded Platform Support: More publishing destinations and cloud storage options

Perfect for writers who need to share content across multiple platforms and formats with confidence. Checkout this guide to learn how to use the new share experience: Revamped Share Experience Guide.

Writing is better together! We've introduced collaboration features that let you share articles with your team members and work together on content creation. Invite collaborators by email and start building content as a team.

Current collaboration features:

• Email Invitations: Invite team members using their email addresses
• Shared Access: Multiple people can access and work on the same article
• Permission Management: Control who can view, edit, or comment on your articles
• Comment System: Leave feedback and suggestions directly in the document

Coming soon:

• Real-time Editing: Live collaboration with cursors and instant updates
• Version History: Track changes and revert to previous versions

Perfect for technical teams, content creators, documentation teams, and anyone who needs to collaborate on Markdown content.

Working with tables in Markdown just got a whole lot easier! We've introduced powerful table creation and editing capabilities that eliminate the need to manually write complex table syntax. Whether you're importing data from CSV files or creating tables from scratch, our new visual table editor streamlines the entire process.

We are excited to announce that we have expanded our support for AI models, allowing you to use an AI model of your choice for generating draft, rewriting text, explaining code or generating code snippets. This update includes support for multiple AI models, including:

OpenAI Models

• GPT-3.5 Turbo - Fast and efficient for most tasks
• GPT-3.5 Turbo 16K - Extended context window for longer conversations
• GPT-4 - Advanced reasoning and complex problem solving
• GPT-4 Turbo - Improved version with better performance
• GPT-4o - Latest optimized model with enhanced capabilities

Anthropic Models

• Claude 1 - First generation conversational AI
• Claude 2 - Improved reasoning and safety features
• Claude 2.1 - Enhanced version with better accuracy
• Claude 3 Haiku - Fast and lightweight for quick tasks
• Claude 3 Sonnet - Balanced performance for general use
• Claude 3 Opus - Most capable model for complex reasoning

You can easily switch between these models in the editor settings to find the one that best suits your workflow and preferences. Each model brings unique strengths to help enhance your writing and coding experience.

A brand new Markdown Editor is now live. It simplifies the toolbar, making more options easily accessible for faster writing. The editor options now support Keyboard shortcuts, making it more accessible. Moreover, the export, publish and share options are now consolidated under the Share menu.

A brand new landing page is now live for MD Editor. The primary reason for a refresh was to move away from Framer and adopt a NextJS based website. It will help save on costs and will be easier to manage. Moreover, now both Changelog and Blog pages use Markdown for its content. I am planning to exclusively use MD Editor platform to write and publish Blog and change log entries so that I can discover issues with the writing/publishing workflows early!
