A History of Markdown Monster as a Product You can take the latter with a grain of salt, but the discussion of the hows and whys of having source code in the open and how it didn't work out for me might be useful to others who are thinking about doing something similar.
In this post I'll talk about the reasons for this action as well as offer some of my thoughts on the state of software today. Markdown Monster is not dead!īut the source code out in the open is now a thing of the past and only available by explicit request in a private repository. Issues will continue to be processed and fixed and new versions will be forthcoming. You can still download Markdown Monster installers and access the Chocolatey, Snap and WinGet packages. The GitHub repository is still there and will continue to be there. It's all about convenience - everything is at your finger tips, but it's out of your way until you need it.With a heavy heart and a lot of hand wringing, I decided last week to take down the Markdown Monster source code from the public GitHub repository due to rampant license abuses.
Other convenience features let you browse for and select files in the built-in folder browser, use the document outline to jump through sections in your Markdown, or shell out to Explorer, Terminal or your favorite Git client. You can even use Vim or EMacs type conventions. You can choose from a light and dark app theme, and choose individual editor and preview themes that are fully customizable. The HTML preview can display syntax colored code snippets for most common coding languages, and can easily be customized with HTML and CSS template to match your own sites. You can export your Markdown to HTML or PDF by saving to disk or by copying Markdown selections as HTML directly to the clipboard.
