 * SimpleMDE - https://simplemde.com/ 
   Broken in various ways, abandoned and carried on in a fork by ...
 * EasyMDE - https://easymde.tk/ 
   Based on codemirror, works quite nicely (not sure about the link formatting yet) but 
   completely broken on mobile, codemirror is doing a big v6 that will hopefully fix 
   mobile support, but probably gonna be a while coming

 * Slate / slate-md-editor - https://canner.github.io/canner-slate-editor/?selectedKind=slate-md-editor&selectedStory=Simple%20demo&full=0&addons=1&stories=1&panelRight=0
   Looks pretty decent but would need to do a whole react setup to be able to use it
   
 * Quill
   quilljs-markdown supports barely any markdown (just starting lines with header blocks)
   quill-markdown-shortcuts doesnt load the plain example
   
 * Stackedit - https://stackedit.io/app#
   Very nice looking, cant find any way to use the editor embedded
   
 * Mobiledoc - https://bustle.github.io/mobiledoc-kit/demo/
   Minimal markdown support
   
 * Dillinger - Not WYSIWYG

https://prosemirror.net/ also supports markdown

@jo Ah yeh I forgot I looked at prose-mirror, but didnt find any module that let it do WYSIWG markdown, I was looking for kinda the opposite of https://prosemirror.net/examples/markdown/ where you type in markdown and it gets marked up

If you click on the WYSIWYM radio button on the bottom of that demo you can enter eg ## and it formats the line at the cursor as a heading.

Prosemirror works much better on mobile than Codemirror btw.

@jo yup but headings and lists seem to be pretty much the only thing supported, links and general text formatting arent

Between adding react, debugging codemirror or adding support for links though it may be worth looking into how hard it would be to support that
