Markdown Edit is a text editor specifically designed for Markdown, a lightweight markup language used to format plain text documents. In this tutorial, we will guide you on how to install Markdown Edit on Manjaro, a Linux distribution based on Arch Linux.
Before we start installing Markdown Edit, we need to install some dependencies. Open the terminal and type the following command:
sudo pacman -S gtk-sharp-3 webkitgtk
This command will install the necessary GTK# 3 and WebKitGTK+ packages required to run Markdown Edit.
Next, we need to download the Markdown Edit package from GitHub. Open your web browser and go to the following URL:
https://github.com/georgeOsdDev/markdown-edit/releases/
Select the latest release version and scroll down to Assets section. Download the markdown-edit-x.x.x.tar.gz archive file.
Once the download is complete, navigate to the directory where the archive file is downloaded. Right-click on the file and select "Extract Here" option from the context menu.
You should see a new folder named markdown-edit-x.x.x in the same directory.
We are almost done! Navigate to the folder where markdown-edit-x.x.x is located and open the terminal.
Type the following command to install Markdown Edit:
sudo make install
This will compile the Markdown Edit source code and install the application to your system.
To launch Markdown Edit, type markdown-edit in the terminal or search for it in the application menu.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed Markdown Edit on your Manjaro Linux system. Start using Markdown Edit to create and edit Markdown documents with ease.
