Markdown Edit is a free and open-source markdown editor for Windows. In this tutorial, we will learn how to install Markdown Edit on NixOS Latest.
Before we start, make sure you have a working NixOS Latest installation. You can download the ISO image from the official website:
https://nixos.org/download.html
First, we need to install Git on our system. Git is a version control system that is used to manage and share code.
To install Git, run the following command in your terminal:
sudo nix-env -iA nixos.git
Next, we need to download the Markdown Edit repository from GitHub. To do this, use the following command to clone the repository:
git clone https://github.com/georgeOsdDev/markdown-edit.git
This will create a new directory called markdown-edit
in your current working directory.
Navigate to the markdown-edit
directory and use the following command to build and install Markdown Edit:
nix-build release.nix
This will create a new directory called result
in your current working directory. Inside the result
directory, you will find the MarkdownEdit.exe
file, which is the Markdown Edit executable.
To run Markdown Edit, use the following command:
./result/MarkdownEdit.exe
Congratulations! You have successfully installed Markdown Edit on NixOS Latest. You can now use Markdown Edit to create, edit, and preview Markdown documents on your NixOS system. If you encounter any issues during the installation process, feel free to consult the NixOS documentation or the Markdown Edit GitHub repository.
