This is super cool. I wish there was something like this for ConTeXt too.

I wrote a Markdown -> ConTeXt -> PDF editor that may interest you.

  • Interesting. I usually use pandoc for converting my Markdown, which goes via LaTeX. Is there a specific reason you picked ConTeXt?

My project https://latex.to supports ConTeXt (plus all other TeX Live engines). Click + then New from showcase then ConTeXt to try it.

  • Cool! But it appears to always use LuaTeX as the engine, so only the older MkIV format is supported, and not the current LMTX format. The caching also doesn't seem to work quite right, since it appears to regenerate the font caches every time that you run it, which makes recompiles quite slow.
