Dillinger is a cloud-enabled, mobile-ready, offline-storage, AngularJS powered HTML5 Markdown editor.

• Type some Markdown on the left
• See HTML in the right
• Magic

Markdown is a lightweight markup language based on the formatting conventions that people naturally use in email. As John Gruber writes on the [Markdown site] 1:

The overriding design goal for Markdown's formatting syntax is to make it as readable as possible. The idea is that a Markdown-formatted document should be publishable as-is, as plain text, without looking like it's been marked up with tags or formatting instructions.

This text you see here is actually written in Markdown! To get a feel for Markdown's syntax, type some text into the left window and watch the results in the right.

3.0.2

Dillinger uses a number of open source projects to work properly:

• AngularJS - HTML enhanced for web apps!
• Ace Editor - awesome web-based text editor
• Marked - a super fast port of Markdown to JavaScript
• Twitter Bootstrap - great UI boilerplate for modern web apps
• node.js - evented I/O for the backend
• Express - fast node.js network app framework @tjholowaychuk
• Gulp - the streaming build system
• keymaster.js - awesome keyboard handler lib by @thomasfuchs
• jQuery - duh

You need Gulp installed globally:

$ npm i -g gulp

$ git clone [git-repo-url] dillinger
$ cd dillinger

$ gulp build --prod
$ NODE_ENV=production node app
