<div><b>@Lynn </b>- Yes, thanks for the presentation Lynn. It
was great and inspiring! I've been drifting away from Python
to play with other languages, but Python data science tooling
is one of the features that keeps me interested in Python. I
feel like this is Python's "killer apps".</div>

<div><b>@Craig</b> - Thanks for the tip on retext. I'll check it
out. When I switch over from command line / vim to put on my
developer hat, I currently use VS Code which has a built in
markdown preview mode. <br>

<div>I also use GitHub Actions for my repos to automatically
check for markdown lint and broken links in my markdown files.<br>

<div>You can see how it generates a green "passing" badge if the
Github Actions passes the "Docs" checks:<br>

<p>Thanks again to Lynn for the inspiring and thought
provoking presentation.</p>
<p>For those who might want to play with Markdown separately
from Jupyter Lab, try <b>retext</b> on Linux.</p>
<p>I have been writing my articles in markdown since 2016,
and have tried several markdown editors on Linux and the
Chromebook. Retext works the best on Linux, it includes
side by side editing (source on one side, and formatted on
the other). And it is most repos.<br>

</p>
<p>For the Chromebook I use Minimalist Markdown Editor. But
with Google removing Apps on the Chromebook, I am not sure
if you can still get it. It also has side-by-side editing.</p>
