Description:
Ghostwriter is a text editor for Markdown. It provides a relaxing, distraction-free writing environment, whether your masterpiece is that next blog post, your school paper, or your NaNoWriMo novel. Create your own custom themes, write in fullscreen mode, or use focus mode to concentrate on just one or more lines. A live HTML preview allows you to view the final formatting as you type.
