there's a non trivial lag when typing for me on chrome, makes it pretty hard to use
The new Basecamp uses wysihtml5 and we're quite happy with it!
It looks like the beginning of a very nice project! I had a similar itch to scratch a few weeks ago when I wanted a nice simple editor for a project and modified the pagedown editor (the markdown editor from stackoverflow) to use bootstrap. Its here: https://github.com/samwillis/pagedown-bootstrap You can see a demo here: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/2690345/pagedown-bootstrap-demo/demo...

YesNoMaybeSo!Yay it worked!!").

I remember the new Basecamp having the same problem just after they launched (it's gone/fixed now), maybe someone from their team could chime in on how they solved it?

I'm in the same situation. Got a hobby writing app slapped together that has a built in Markdown converter. I want normal people to use it but the idea is to focus on the writing, not the formatting so there's no buttons for WYSIWYG editing. I think I'm the right context Markdown only would work. In my situation I'm probably just going to throw up a short intro to Markdown tutorial for people who want to format their…
