As mentioned above, **Mark Text** is completely free and open source and will be open source forever. We hope that all markdown lovers will contribute their own code and help develop **Mark Text** into a popular markdown editor. 3. There are many markdown editors and all have their own merits, some have feautures which others don't. It's difficult to satisfy each markdown users needs but we hope **Mark Text** will be able to satisfy each markdown users' needs as much as possible.
