What's everyone's favorite README editor? (lemmy.world)

Looking for a good README editor. With maybe git functionality, but not necessary

  • Like adding shields/badges/assets within automatically

  • managing a directory like structure by generating new MD files in a directory like folder structure.

Essentially an IDE like environment just for markdown file management and a WYSIWYG editing experience

Yeah, have been using text editor mainly for markdown editing or other lightweight WYSIWYG apps, it's good enough. Felt, there could be more out there that I am missing out on which I am unaware of.

There are a pletora of markown editors that have a split view w/ live preview (I used various - the one I currently have installed is Ghostwriter), but you can most probably get the same with your programmer's text editor (well, unless your text editing is done in the terminal) and, one way or another, you are not guaranteed that what you see is what will be displayed in github/gitlab/...
