WP Markdown Editor replaces the default editor with SimpleMDE editor - a beautiful and intuitive Markdown editor. The plugin uses the Markdown module from Jetpack for parsing and saving content.

If you are not familiar with Markdown, Markdown is used by writers and bloggers who want a quick and easy way to write rich text, without having to take their hands off the keyboard, and without learning a lot of complicated codes and shortcuts. Refer to the Markdown Quick Reference page for help.

Check out the Screenshots to see how it looks.

The plugin is open source on GitHub.
