  • Employer is forcing me to screen share on my personal computer
    Focusing on the reason stated “pair programming” ask your employer if you can use live share for VSCode or teletype for atom instead. Pair programming works great in certain situations but screen sharing is the absolute worst way to get this done. Source: almost 2 years ago
  • Top 10 IDEs for React.js Developers in 2021
    Teletype: this is one of the highlight features of Atom as it allows you to share your entire workspace and edit code together in real-time. Source: over 2 years ago
  • Use VS Code online for your workshops!
    Some code editors have plugins to allow the developers to create collaboration sessions. Visual Studio has Live Share and Atom has Teletype. But the invitees need to install the editor to be able to join the session. Until today. - Source: dev.to / over 2 years ago
  • Looking for pair programming coding challenges
    Teletype for Atom might be what you're looking for. Also, haven't used yet, but a quick Google search shows me something like this also exists. Source: about 3 years ago
  • Atom Teletype's peer-to-peer connection
    Hi there! I'd like to implement something similar to Teletype's way of connection. It briefly works this way: first the clients (peers) connect to an external server, then they somehow manage to establish a peer-to-peer connection to stop using the server and talk to each other. No need to open router ports in any of the peers. Source: about 3 years ago

  • Epub rendering with Pandoc
    I write a LOT of documentation in Markdown for $DAYJOB. I normally use Marked2 (not free, but I paid for my license 7-8 years ago) or MacDown (free) to preview them, and to export them to PDF. Both of these programs are specific to macOS, but a web search for "markdown editor" turns up a few dozen others, for other platforms. Most of these will have an "export to PDF" function built into them. Source: 6 months ago
  • Good Free Application For Reading `.md` Files On Mac Pro
    MacDown is free, open source and super simple. Has been my go-to Markdown editor for years. Highly recommend. Source: about 1 year ago
  • Ask HN: Is there any beautiful Markdown editor?
    Macdown: https://macdown.uranusjr.com/ And here's a huge list: https://github.com/mundimark/awesome-markdown-editors. - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago
  • High probability of conversion issues from PDF to Epub
    So I convert the PDF to Markdown format. Then I use my Markdown editor of choice, Macdown, to clean up the text and then convert the resulting document into the format that I want. Source: over 1 year ago
  • Markdown editor's with a toolbar?
    If you're talking about buttons to help you style your text so you don't have to remember the syntax, then MacDown will have you covered. Source: almost 2 years ago
