GitHub Writer for Google Chrome

GitHub Writer: A Powerful WYSIWYG Editor for GitHub

GitHub Writer is a WYSIWYG rich-text editor for GitHub, developed by CKSource. This Chrome extension is designed to enhance the editing experience when creating or commenting on issues, reviews, pull requests, and wikis on GitHub.

With GitHub Writer, users can take advantage of a wide range of features that are not available in the plain-text editor provided by GitHub. This includes the ability to easily create tables, format text, and add links and images without the need for Markdown syntax. The editor is powered by CKEditor 5, a modern JavaScript rich-text editor that ensures a smooth and intuitive editing experience.

One of the key advantages of GitHub Writer is its WYSIWYG (What You See Is What You Get) functionality. Unlike plain-text editors, users can see the formatting and styling of their text in real-time, eliminating the need to switch to a preview mode to check the final appearance. This not only saves time but also allows users to be more productive when working on GitHub.

GitHub Writer is an open-source project, and the developer, CKSource, encourages users to provide feedback, ask questions, and contribute to its development. With its user-friendly interface and powerful features, GitHub Writer is a valuable tool for anyone who frequently uses GitHub for collaboration and code management.
