The Medium editor is great and it will get better.Medium has taken the world by storm and I spend a lot of time absorbing all the great information here.
However, there's one drawback. I would like to write my articles offline. And also, even when online, I'd want something more minimal to write my articles - fast. I'm a command-line junkie and take my notes via sncli - a simple note client that is awesome, and allows me to use my favorite text editor - Vim. On the Mac, I use nvAlt
The original way, that used to work, doesn't anymore. I tried it and Medium imported nothing than the heading. Now, Medium's import is looking for a URL, which I assume is parsing as a HTML Document.
You will need to either:
- convert your Markdown to HTML first. Copy & paste it into your article.
- use many of markdown editors that have a preview mode. Copy that, and paste it in.
