Rune

Markdown that renders as you type — code, diagrams, math

What it does

Rune is a focused, fast Markdown editor for desktop. In one pane, your Markdown formats the moment you type — only the line you're on shows raw source. Code, Mermaid diagrams, KaTeX math, and tables render right where you write them, while the page stays calm. Local-first (plainmd files), built on Rust so it opens instantly and stays small. Korean/CJK is first-class. Free & open source (MIT) for macOS, Windows, and Linux.

    Lobster.js – Extended Markdown with layout blocks and footnotesMar 2026 · github.com · ▲7

    Hi HN! I built lobster.js which is an extended Markdown parser that renders directly in the browser — no build tool, no framework, no configuration. The entire setup is a single script tag: import { loadMarkdown } from "https://hacknock.github.io/lobsterjs/lobster.js"; loadMarkdown("./content.md", document.getElementById("content")); It's particularly useful for GitHub Pages sites where you want Markdown-driven content without pulling in Jekyll or Hugo. --- What makes it different from marked.js or markdown-it: Standard parsers convert Markdown to HTML — that's it.…

    Today, I’m proud to announce Homebrew 6.0.0. The most significant changes since 5.1.0 are a new tap trust security mechanism, the new faster, smaller, default internal Homebrew JSON API, sandboxing on Linux, better defaults informed by our user survey, many brew bundle improvements, improved performance and initial support for macOS 27 (Golden Gate). Happy to discuss any questions here!
