My vision of what I believe would be the best approach to a GTK3 markdown editor, following the GNOME Human Interface Guidelines.
As GNOME provides already a text editor (not MD), it's based on Gedit, adding more functionality for rich text documents.
I got some inspiration from the great programs Abricotine and Typora. I consider distracting and a waste of space the "two windows" editors.
Main view with toolbar and panel:
Showing code view (without the tool bar):
Even when shows code the style of the document persists.
- Preferences Window
- Modify CSS and add more styles
- Font type and size
- Dark Theme option
- Tabulation width
- Autocompletion
- Autosave
- Import and export options
- And others ...
I'll look into it for the next update :)
