I often need to convert rich text copied from websites or Word/odt documents to Markdown, and sometimes vice versa. Is there an open source Markdown editor that lets me simultaneously paste in and edit a document both as WYSIWYG and Markdown source code? Preferably side by side.
I’ve actually been using the Reddit redesign’s Markdown editor for this, since it lets me switch between a WYSIWYG text box and a Markdown source code editor, but that’s obviously not at all a good option.
- I agree: it’s great. - Also can use the freely the instance at hackmd.io 
 
- How about Apostrophe? 
- Obsidian let’s you edit with a preview version next to the source version, or even edit the source inline whilst the rest of the document remains as WYSIWYG. - Obsidian is cool yeah. But it ain’t open source. 
 
- Huh? Nearly every editor can do this. For work, I use Visual Studio Code for that, maybe you additionally need a Markdown Extension, but I’m pretty sure it works out of the box.
