There are so many markdown editors that it's hard to find even the most valuable ones! So please help me and let me know what you are using if you work a lot with markdown :)

I'm a big fan of Quiver on Mac. I mostly use it to store little notes about things I'm working on, but I even use it for writing longer-form stuff like blog posts, etc.
VS Code has a really good built-in side by side Markdown editor!
I agree. VS Code + Markdown Preview do a pretty good job for MD editing.
I mostly just use a text editor, like notepad++. When I want side-by-side display, I've been using Atom.js
I love Macdown. It's great for longer writing, although to be fair I don't write that much and don't have that much experience with the app.
It's also open source and would love to integrate a "Publish/Upload to dev.to" button one day -- an idea we've talked about in the office.
Disclaimer: I work for dev.to 🙃
The whole point of Markdown is it's easy to write it in a regular text editor. I use neovim for everything anyway, why switch for a single filetype? It even does syntax highlighting, and there's a plugin to generate a table of contents.
Same here. Vim or Sublime w/ Vintage Mode
However, occasionally markdown breaks the "pure text" model (usually when working with lists). I've tried using a markdown editor but I end up missing visual mode too much.
I'm using Marked 2 and just plain emacs. Turns out having a separate renderer and editor is more productive.
This is what i use in Emacs markdown-mode
So do I. I write a lot of pandoc-markdown and get different formats for my output files with a makefile.
I love markdown for writing a blog, I recommend this one: github.com/hinesboy/mavonEditor
I use Boostnote. It is markdown based note keeping app. It is also cross-platform and open-source
trying this out now, looks amazing. I downloaded the one on the main site (turns out it was version 0.1.2 lol, hotkeys weren't working, latest is 0.13 and it's miles nicer looking and hotkeys work :D)
Cool, will check out the newer version. Meanwhile you can also check out typora. I use both currently: Boostnote for keeping notes, and typora for creating PDFs with markdown (latex, code blocks, etc.). Typora provides much more interactive experience, while boostnote provides better note organization.
I'm currently using VS Code's built-in markdown editor. Though this discussion thread has some awesome ones I'd love to try☺
I use GitBook for documentation hosted on the platform, Visual Studio Code and IntelliJ inbuilt markdown editors - depends on the job at hand
