Does anyone know of something like this, but for Markdown?

So, like a collaborative Markdown document editor, as well as a simple way to store those documents and choose them for reading/editing later.



You can actually do that in Plunker right now by having an `index.md` file instead of `index.html` [1].

In the absence of an html index, the plunker preview server will try transpiling to html from different languages. Markdown is currently supported.

Also transpiled are things like less, scss, coffee-script and more. Essentially, your html requests a file with the target suffix (e.g.: .css) and the preview server will search for compatible source files to transpile to that target.

Wait, that's backwards. The point of Markdown is that you type the formatting quickly, instead of clicking buttons on a toolbar.

That animation seems to be about clicking buttons on a toolbar that will secretly generate Markdown formatting for you.
