Turn Your Sublime Test Into a Markdown Editor

Markdown language is the new favourite for all the blog writers. It is great to create formatted content without learning a new language with hundreds of syntax and tags. The text remains free of any markup tags or instructions which allows it to be published as simple plain text also. The philosophy of Markdown is to make it easy to write and easy to read.

One of the best Markdown packages available for Sublime Test is “MarkdownEditing”. It is available for both ST2 and ST3. Installing any package in ST requires package control feature in Sublime Text. To install package control in Sublime Text you can refer the page here.

Once you have the package control installed on your ST, you can install “MarkdownEditing” by following the below basic steps.
