I’d like to add a plea to not get locked up in the browser. While others are worrying about the toolbar and placement of the editor window in the browser, I have my local editing environment that’s more powerful and custom-configured than any browser box could be. Using [GitHub - docwhat/itsalltext: It's All Text! - Edit textareas in your browser with your favorite editor! · GitHub](https://github.com/docwhat/itsalltext) I’m immediately editing locally — as long as the site allows me. All I need is a plain textarea input. This could be hidden as a small button. Discourse doesn’t offer this.

Whenever I save, my work in progress is sent to the site, and the preview and/or in-browser editor can update.

This way, it’s not down to the discourse authors to create the one true ideal editing experience. You can benefit from the work of the makers of WriteRoom, OmniWriter, ZenWriter, or for techie forums BBEdit, TextPad or Vim!
