React Markdown Editor with preview

How cool would it be to have a markdown editor for your files?

With this editor you can do it, just make sure to do the following:

Fork this repo.
Clone your forked repo:

git clone https://github.com/{username}/markdown-editor.git

Use it as you want to.

Do you need different styles for it?

Go to to src/hooks/use-codemirror.tsx edit the theme, so far I’m using oneDark theme, but you can replace it with the theme that you like.
