editmd 0.1.0
editmd 0.1.0 is a markdown editor for macOS that merges external agent edits in real time.
Editmd is a markdown editor for macOS designed to work alongside AI coding agents. It uses Y.js to merge edits made by external programs or agents on disk in real time, preventing file conflict dialogs. The app features a WYSIWYG view built with Milkdown and ProseMirror, supporting GitHub Flavored Markdown, Mermaid diagrams, and front matter. It preserves file encoding, line endings, and byte structures on save while offering safe handling of external links and remote images. It is built as a native AppKit document application for Apple silicon and Intel Macs.
