GitBook Editor – A Git Workflow from Your Linux Desktop

GitBook is a command line tool (and Node.js library) you can use it to build beautiful books locally on your desktop or online, hosted on GitBook.com using GitHub/Git and Markdown (or AsciiDoc).

It can be used to create any type of written content including documentations, thesis, research papers, enterprise manuals, etc.

GitBook Editor is a cross-platform GUI application that brings the workflow of GitBook to your desktop.

It features a well thought-out text-editing interface into which you can enter Markdown and work side by side with its live preview, integrated Git controls, a table of contents panel, a file tree panel, and quick formatting buttons for easy document structuring.

Features in GitBook Editor

• Cross-platform and free: you’re not limited to using GitBook Editor on Linux; download and sign into the app on a Mac or Windows laptop to continue your work like nothing changed.
• Minimal and intuitive UI: easily find your way around the editor without random buttons getting in your way.
• Expressive Markup: use Markdown or Asciidoc to structure content and LaTeX to typeset mathematics.
• Convenient Editing: use drag-n-drop, keyboard shortcuts, auto-complete, and other features to improve your workflow.
