Extension summary

Github Jekyll Editor is extension for Chrome Based Browsers . Hope to :

  1. Support Markdown Editor focusing on Jekyl (hosted in Github.io);
  2. Support list posts, edit post, publish post, delete post, etc.;

But due to my personal willing, I hope to seek some new alternative tool which can be much better than my shallow extension, which ideally can support below expectations:

  1. Portable & Cross platforms, as I normally switch cross different platforms and devices, especially some of those are restricted to install softwares;
  2. As big fan of Vim, Vim-mode in editor is a MUST;
  3. Distraction-free mode is perfered;

After scanning all visible candiates, especially several very strong self-hosted solutions (which is most possible approach can easily meet requirement 2), it's sadlly for me to realize that there is not so perfect solution, let alone the self-host solution anyway relying on one dedicated VPS & those effort/trouble shooting in those setup and also customization.

Then, I eventually made up of my mind to reconstruct my old tool to be more mordern style.
