Typora, the critically acclaimed Markdown writing app for Windows, differs from the two-column interface layout of conventional writing tools by combining the ‘edit write’ and ‘preview rendering’ processes, with all in-line elements (e.g. bold, italic) automatically switching between edit and preview states depending on whether they are in edit or not, and block elements (e.g. headings, lists) rendering in time for pressing Enter.
Writing becomes so simple and clean.
- Interaction and power over traditional editors: What you see is what you get.
- WYSIWYG. the Typora interface is a single-column layout, with the toolbar mostly integrated into the right-click menu bar. once the user has paid for the input marker in the edit state, Typora will automatically display a preview once the input cursor has left.
- Copy and paste function. Users can copy table content from Excel and paste it directly into Typora, which will automatically convert it into a table format; users can quickly add hyperlinks by selecting the text and using the Ctrl + k shortcut (and many other similar shortcuts); if content needs to be copied from Typora, the software supports direct conversion to HTML or plain text format; and
- Various modes of managing files and writing. Typora’s View menu allows you to switch between Outliine, Articles and File Tree views, and offers Typewriter, Focus and Source modes.
These are just some of the highlights of Typora, which also allows users to easily insert mathematical formulas, tables of contents, footnotes and other writing content. Typora is recommended as a free, cross-platform (Windows, macOS and Linux) writing tool for writers who prefer a clean layout with powerful hiding features.
