Well-made Markdown editors suchas Obsidian and Typora feel comfortable touse in ways that can be hard to pinpoint. There are many reasons, butone that stands out is how carefully theyhandle caret navigation.

Compiling and rendering a 350-page book in real time. It's not fast enough yet, but it's usable. Recorded on a 2022 MacBook Air M2. (The book is *The Dao of Functional Programming* by @BartoszMilewski.)
When the caret is placed on a blank line between two paragraphs while editing LaTeX, a small line is also shown at the same position in the PDF preview. A small but convenient detail.
CorTeX's LaTeX editor now displays the numbers assigned to \cite{...}, such as "[1]" and "[2]", as inlay hints and tooltips.
Word-level automatic highlighting between the LaTeX Visual Editor, Source Editor, and PDF Preview.

OpenAI's LaTeX editor Prism is shutting down on January 1, 2027. Here's a far better alternative with near-real-time compilation (< 0.05 s), a high-fidelity WYSIWYG editor, Typst support, a Zotero-like library management system, and more: cortex.corca.ai
Editing Markdown tables should be as easy as editing Excel spreadsheets. Here's the version I'm working on.
CorTeX now supports Typst, with real-time collaboration, LSP support, a WYSIWYG editor, GitHub integration, and more.
You can use the Typst editor here — no login is required (omg, did I just use an em dash?): cortex.corca.ai/try/typst.ty…

Now you can share your PDF or Markdown file with anyone via a link. Here's an example of a shared Markdown file. It's small, fast, and beautiful: cortex.corca.ai/published/sh…

Working on CorTeX-GitHub integration. FYI, CorTeX is ultrafast LaTeX editor compiles less then 50ms.
Now, CorTeX renders Mermaid using Pele. It's faster, lighter, and prettier. Thanks @kepano.
This is Pele, my new rendering library for diagrams and charts, compatible with the latest Mermaid syntax.
- 100-500× faster than mermaid.js
- 6× smaller bundle
- No dependencies
- Easy to theme
- Responsive to device width
In pursuit of making Obsidian insanely fast and cohesively designed, I always found the Mermaid library to be too big, too slow, and too hard to theme. Pele will be the new renderer in the next version of Obsidian, but you can start using it now.
Pele [ˈpɛlɛ] is named after the goddess of volcanoes and fire. It's open source under the MIT license. Try the playground!
