# Why Milkdown
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
There are different kinds of markdown editors, such as [Typora](https://typora.io/), [tui](https://github.com/nhn/tui.editor) and [Bear](https://bear.app/).
|
||
|
|
They work pretty well for writing notes in markdown on different platforms. So why bother making Milkdown?
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Milkdown aims to provide an **open source solution** for developers to make their editors more powerful, and attractive, it also ensures it runs everywhere.

## Open Source & Easy to Integrate
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Different from industrial apps such as [Notion](https://notion.so) and [Typora](https://typora.io/),
|
||
|
|
Milkdown is open source and fully free. You can integrate it everywhere legally.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
> If you like milkdown, please consider to fund me in order to help with the maintenance.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Plugin Driven
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Milkdown treats every feature as a plugin.
|
||
|
|
With this pattern, developers can choose what they need in an editor instead of bundling all features even they won't need.
|
||
|
|
Developers can extend their plugins to satisfy their habits such as defining a vim keymap via a custom plugin.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Reliable
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Milkdown is powered by [Prosemirror](https://prosemirror.net/) and [Remark](https://github.com/remarkjs/remark), which has a large community and stands the test of the industry.
|
||
|
|
What's more, plugins from the prosemirror and remark community can be easily reused in order to build a Milkdown plugin.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Themable & Hackable
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Themes and plugins for Milkdown can be shared and installed using npm packages. Milkdown is a headless component, which means you can fully control its style.
