At all times, you can add rows and columns and while in preview mode change column alignment. Certainly, the Typora table editor is prettier. Typora is a full-fledged editor (and I’ll review that aspect in context below) but Typora is the only other tool with a really good table creator and editor, in some ways better than even TableFlip. TableFlip does handle multiple tables in document very well, putting them into multiple tabs and ignoring the non-tabular data.

Typora plus BBEdit plus Marked 2 doesn’t sound any worse. I would specifically like to swap the Strikeout and Footnotes columns and have no way to do so.Īt the current price point of $19 I’d expect to at least be able to drag and drop reorder rows in TableFlip. I hope you designed your table right the first time, as BBEdit can’t help you move columns either.

TableFlip does not allow you to move columns either. It gives you awkward access to two sets of tools. This makes TableFlip only marginally more useful than Marked 2. To do what I want to do you have to open your table in a text editor like BBEdit and do your copy and pasting of rows there with preview in TableFlip. Tableflip didn’t let me do it: you can only copy one cell at a time. I wanted to reorder the table attached to this document. What TableFlip is missing though is a way to copy and paste whole rows. It’s possible to work on a really wide table in TableFlip like a spreadsheet. I didn’t see a tool to automatically convert the table to HTML. You can import Markdown tables from the clipboard. TableFlip seems useful with tables at first glance. This is because Typora is both a great table creator/manager (won that category) and a first rate single pane editor (won that subcategory). Typora is the only application which appears on both lists. If I didn’t have to publish to web or email regularly (priority on HTML preview) my rankings would probably change with some of the single pane Markdown editors doing better.

The second table is a list of Markdown applications ranked in my order of preference as a writing tool. The first table are dedicated table tools or preview applications.

Our overall winner is a cross-platform application (OS X , Windows, Linux) built on HTML5 technology and we do cover other Windows Markdown editors at the end of the article.įirst let’s start with some tables. There are two tables in this article (originally I had one). As I use OS X and most of our team does as well (we have some Linux and a few Windows users: we have fewer people using Windows than Linux at this point), this article focuses on OS X Markdown editors.

In the process I discovered a lot about Markdown and even editing.

So I went looking for a Markdown editor which supported tables well for my team.

This is what Markdown tables look like as plain text: | Application - Markdown Support | Active | Preview | Price | Non-app store version | Writing Experience | Footnotes | Strikethrough | | - | :-: | :-: | -: | :-: | :-: | - | - | | Typora | Superb | Yes | Free Beta | Yes | ++++ | Weak | Two Tildes | | TableIt | Yes | Yes | $19 | Yes | N/A | N/A | N/A | | Marked 2 | No | Yes | $10 | Yes | N/A | Yes | Yes, GFM | | BBEdit/TextWrangler | Yes | No | $50/free | Yes | ++ | No | No | I’d heard there was decent support for tables in Markdown but trying to edit Markdown tables long hand was not fun at all. This was preventing us from switching everything to Markdown. For some of our internal documents we desperately need tables.
