What is MD Editor?

MD Editor is an AI ID editor tool. A Markdown editor and technical content workspace for drafting long documents, approving context-aware AI edits, collecting comments, and publishing the same Markdown source to GitHub, WordPress, Ghost, DEV, Hashnode, or X Articles.

MD Editor (mdedit.ai) is a Markdown workspace aimed at people who write and ship technical documents. It keeps Markdown as the source of truth while drafting, AI assistance, review, visuals and publishing happen around the same file. The editor shows source alongside rendered output, lints formatting drift as you type, and uses headings plus a generated table of contents to keep long guides navigable. Frontmatter travels with the document, and existing work can be imported and exported again as portable files. The AI layer is deliberately reviewable. Ask, Edit, Create and Agent modes work with the open document as context, and suggested changes arrive as visible diffs that you accept or reject rather than silent rewrites. AI Review pushes findings into ordinary comments and suggestions, so human reviewers stay in charge of what lands. Writers can use the included AI, bring their own key, or connect a local Ollama model on desktop. Collaboration covers live co-editing with presence, threaded comments with replies and resolution, and permission controls for who can read, edit or view a snapshot. Publishing goes to destinations such as GitHub, WordPress, Ghost, DEV, Hashnode and X Articles, and exports include DOCX, ODT, AsciiDoc and DocBook. Diagrams written as Mermaid, Graphviz or Markmap render live, tables can be edited visually, and real code snippets can become screenshots. Automatic history, offline-first sync and desktop local workspaces protect drafts when the network drops. It fits technical writers, developers writing READMEs and architecture guides, documentation teams coordinating writers and subject matter experts, and students. Compared with Typora, StackEdit, Obsidian and Notion, the pitch is narrower: a single Markdown-first pipeline from first draft to published guide, with AI kept inside review rather than bolted on. The interface assumes Markdown familiarity, so newcomers may need time to feel at home.

How do you use MD Editor?

  1. 1Open the editor without an account
    Visit the registration page to try the editor in the browser. A demo document with AI suggestions and comments is available before you sign up.
  2. 2Import an existing Markdown or document file

  4. 4Work through comments and suggestions
    Run AI Review, then reply, assign, resolve, or accept each focused finding. Changes stay visible until someone approves them.
  5. 5Publish or export the document
    Choose a saved destination such as GitHub, WordPress, Ghost, DEV, Hashnode, or X Articles, or export to DOCX, ODT, AsciiDoc, or DocBook.
  6. 6Set up desktop, mobile, CLI, or agent access
    Download the desktop app for local files and offline work, install the mobile app or CLI, or connect an MCP agent to save and find documents.
