The Style of Markdown with the Power of LaTeX.

Powered by blazing fast Bison/Flex and magnificent & extensible Python3.

Did you ever missed these functions in Markdown?

• variables and custom commands in Markdown - in Math- and in Textmode?
• additional parameters for each component for more variation and control?
• custom styles - you can also use different styles in the same document
• the choice to compile to LaTeX or HTML - or both at the same time?
• references across files?
• a easy searchable representation of chapters, images, and other components of your documents
• component nesting using indentation, e.g. sections in lists
  • we use an automatic indentation-style detection (spaces or tabs)
• Notes and Footnotes in a seperate file or part of your document.
• nested multiline comments
• an inplace server for live parsing of markdown files as a replacement for simple php
