Markdown Preview Application for Windows

WindowsMarkdown

Windows Problem Overview

I have been using nvALT © Brett Terpstra 2010 which has the Markdown preview option for all the notes.
Is there any application on Windows end which has similar preview functionality. I understand that lot converters available but for the ease of use sake I am looking for an application with the similar preview option.

Windows Solutions

Solution 1 - Windows

I created a full-featured Markdown editor for Windows called MarkdownPad (http://markdownpad.com), and it supports full live HTML preview:

MarkdownPad, the Markdown Editor for Windows

MarkdownPad is lightweight (only 1.5 MB, not including the .NET 4 Framework), and offers several great features:

  • Everything is customizable. Fonts, colors, sizes, and even the CSS stylesheet of the rendered HTML. The default CSS is beautiful and minimal, and will make your HTML documents look great.
  • Easy HTML export. You can export the full document as HTML, or just selected text.
  • Distraction-free Mode. This full-screen mode turns your whole monitor into a blank canvas for you to get some serious work done.
  • Frequent updates. I'm always improving MarkdownPad, and love hearing feedback from users.
  • Built natively for Windows. MarkdownPad was built from the ground up exclusively for Windows. It uses the latest Microsoft .NET 4 and Windows Presentation 4 Frameworks (translation: it's all kinds of shiny on the inside).

And I even wrote this post in MarkdownPad :)

Solution 2 - Windows

I use MarkPad. It's free. It's open source. It looks great. And, it's written in WPF (which I love).

Solution 3 - Windows

If you use Visual Studio, the Markdown Mode extension is pretty handy for both Markdown syntax highlighting as well as displaying a live preview.

Solution 4 - Windows

ResophNotes supports Markdown with preview.

ReText is a Python app that supports Markdown Preview, but Windows doesn't appear to be the main target platform. I got it to work in Windows, but I had to download the icons separately and copy then into one of the app directories in order to get it to work properly.

WriteMonkey also has Markdown support.

I've written a editor called Markdown Editor.

Solution 6 - Windows

MarkdownPad does not support images.

EDIT: that should read that it did not support local images. But as of the latest version it does!

I can now fully recommend it. It is easily the best Markdown editor, and the developer is a pretty good guy too.
