CLUSTER DESKTOP-DIAGRAMS-EDITOR · 6 ENTRIES · EARLIEST ENTRY 2015-05-04

Desktop Markdown Editors

This cluster consists of desktop markdown editors that render math, diagrams, and live previews, and export to formats like HTML and PDF. Their dated entry history before the index is too thin to discern a shape, with only four dated entries. The leading members by activity signal are marker-enhanced-bin, CuteMarkEd, and cmd-markdown, each with 0 stars.

Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.

Two labels per entry, never collapsed into one: how it was built, and who stands behind it. Counted over the 6 listed below. Unlabelled means nothing has decided yet — not that the answer is small.

Ranked by traction, highest first, and paged 20 at a time — this is a window on the cluster, never the whole of it. Ties are broken by a stable id so a product cannot appear on two pages or fall between them. Browse every cluster.
