So, you want to write some cool posts here in Steemit with all the editing thing?... but maybe it's difficult to you to know how to do, for example; a table or maybe just is tedious to look to the Markdown Styling Guide every time you have to write a post. Ok ok ok, no more words, let me introduce you this two options to write without ANY knowledge in markdown, you only have to copy and paste, that's all!
Let's begin with the option that you can use offline, the name of this app is: Typora
You can dowload it on Windows, OS X and Linux!
Typora, as his own website say, will give you a seamless experience as both a reader and a writer. It removes the preview window, mode switcher, syntax symbols of markdown source code, and all other unnecessary distractions. Replace them with a real live preview feature to help you concentrate the content itself.
In Typora yo can put:
Some images:
Tables
Lists
Code Fences
Index or TOC
Typora is a truly minimalistic Markdown Editor. Not like the other editors, Typora doesn’t separate the markdown syntax from the live preview, the two are combined into one editor. As you type, your markdown syntax will be transformed to the actual preview, like a WYSIWYG editor.
Last but not least, my favourite function, Themes! Typora uses CSS to theme it’s editor and all the built-in themes are all so beautiful, I am not even kidding.
Also I found this video to help you to use it, very easy, like I say copy and paste! Check it out!
Thanks to CryptoIsKey for the video!
Oook, now I'm going to talk about the second option that you can use online, you don't need to install anything. The name of this app is: Classeur
So, what makes Classeur different from those markdown editors? First, it is an online tool (which could work offline) but that’s not something I should emphasize on. Actually the best thing about StackEdit is that it comes with WYSIWYG control which is a great relief for people like me who just could not remember the markup syntax. Also it has a very nice sketch style.
To start writing your Markdown code you only have to click in START in the main page.
(You can see how I write part of this post in Classeur)

HTML TIPS
In this days I was wondering how I can put text aside a image like this:
So, by doing some research, I founded it. This is the magic code:
In this example I'm going to pull to the right this rose
<div class="pull-right">

</div>
and you can write here, something like this short poem
Merlot wine
Kraft single slices
Dead roses not watered
Dead dreams unfulfilled
Hope you like it this tutorial, I'll see you in my next post!
