Project Details
SwidoMark is a minimal live Markdown editor that combines the power of SvelteKit with Tauri for a fast, cross-platform desktop application.
The application features:
- Instant Markdown-to-HTML rendering with GitHub-flavored Markdown support in progress
- Clipboard integration for smooth copy/paste workflows
- Persistent local storage for seamless editing sessions
- Support for light/dark themes and semi-transparent UI options for a modern look
A key architectural choice was using Tauri instead of Electron. Tauri apps are significantly lighter, faster, and consume fewer system resources while still providing full native desktop capabilities. This makes SwidoMark more efficient and responsive on all platforms.
Designed with minimalism in mind, SwidoMark is aimed at developers and writers who need a distraction-free Markdown editing environment.
