User reviews
Very useful, thanks. Just wish it showed as separate "write" and "preview" tabs to be consistent with Github issues entry.
This is super easy to use, it behaves very similar to the Write and Preview tabs on GitHub. It outputs results just as I expect, too. Thank you!
Cool extension! Now if spellcheck could work... Do you think this could be an option? (you only have to set textarea's spellcheck='true'). This would made this a kind of "better markdown gist" extension!
