Markdown Discuss - May 2014 - Markdown Graphics

Hi all,

My thesis project at NYU-ITP is called Markdown Graphics, which is a Markdown
extension, in the form of a web-based editor, that enables users to create and
edit both text and graphics in a single platform. In addition, Markdown Graphics
supports diagram component tagging, allowing diagram and text to be styled by a
single stylesheet. Also, diagrams created and stored in SVG will be
web-publishing-friendly and light-weight.

(It's a prototype, and takes longer to describe it than to try it, so
http://demo.markdown.graphics. Type "<svg>" in the window and a
good thing will happen.)

GitHub repo: https://github.com/xinranwang/Markdown-Graphics

Feedback is welcomed. Thanks!

Best,
Xinran Wang

Xinran,

I think this is interesting since I like to use markdown for everything.

What I would like to have in markdown is a way to generate graphviz
graphics right from within markdown. The syntax for graphviz is simple text
and it generates nice diagrams, so it fits well with the way markdown
works. To me having something that is text based is more important than
having a wysiwyg editor.

If you aren't familiar with graphviz see this doc
http://www.graphviz.org/pdf/dotguide.pdf

The main site is at
http://www.graphviz.org/<http://www.graphviz.org/pdf/dotguide.pdf>

All the best,

Jeff

I'm sorry to say that this site is not working with Mobil browsers. 
I tried Dolphin, Maxthon and Android stock browser (by Samsung)
(Kitkat with Samsung Note 3)

Thank you
Tim
