Markdown Editor
A Github Flavored Markdown Editor
What is Markdown Editor?
Markdown Editor is a Chrome extension that provides a handy platform for editing and formatting text in Markdown. Its functionality is inspired by Github's text editing and preview standards, offering an almost similar experience. With real-time saving, you can prevent the loss of work, while its ability to open local markdown files allows for easy editing. The simplified option to save content as markdown files, as well as the built-in ability to print to PDF using the Chrome native printer, all combine to make this an efficient tool for those who regularly work with Markdown syntax.

Not working
I use this extension to write README files for GitHub, or long Reddit posts. A little glitch: Night mode is not saved. Also localization support would be nice.
