Write your email in Markdown, then make it pretty.
Markdown Here lets you write email in Markdown and render it (make it pretty!) before sending.
This is great for anyone who doesn't like fiddling around with formatting buttons while writing an email. It's especially good for programmers who write email with code in them -- it even supports syntax highlighting. And for the mathematicians among us: Markdown Here will render TeX formulae as well.
Totally simple to use:
1. Write your email in your email client's rich editor using Github-flavoured Markdown.
2. Right-click in the compose area and then click "Markdown Toggle".
3. Your email is now pretty! (That is, it's been rendered to HTML.)
4. If you like the way it looks, just send it. If you want to change or add something, click "Markdown Toggle" again to get back to your original Markdown.
5. Repeat as necessary.
Markdown Here is primarily targeted to work with Gmail and Thunderbird, but it also works pretty well with Yahoo and Hotmail. Additionally, it works great with Google Groups and Sites, Evernote's web interface, Blogger, Wordpress, and more!
Syntax highlighting note: Use fenced code blocks and specify the language name. See the project page for an example.
Privacy: Markdown Here accesses and modifies web content when you activate it. It can, in theory, access other web content, but does not. It also makes no Internet requests whatsoever. Your data is modified when and where you choose, and does not leave your browser.
Available as a Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Opera, and Thunderbird extension.
This is an open source project. Visit Markdown Here's Github page for full instructions, more information, bug reports, or to contribute.

- (2020-08-26) Saul Fautley: Works great for adding code blocks easily when dealing with development support emails. Thanks for making this!
- (2020-08-06) be mad: Where has this been all my life! Works great in Outlook 365. For those reporting it taking up CPU processing power... I think that's changed. However chrome also allows the following workaround. Change "Site access" to "On click" in Chrome's Manage Exentions -> Markdown Here -> Details. I then use right click -> Markdown Toggle over selected text in the text box to convert to markdown. Takes 41mb of RAM and 0.1 CPU.
- (2020-07-10) Jérémie Litzler: I love Markdown, I love this extension: Thanks guys!
- (2020-04-10) Vlad A. Ionescu: One of the few chrome extensions that I install.
- (2020-03-13) 크림혼살: Please add gitlab editor supports
- (2020-02-11) Florian Bereyziat: used to work, but not anymore. From the changelog, last change was 2015, so it seem gmail broke support since that date and the dev abandoned the extension
- (2020-02-06) Alex: Leaks memory and consumes cpu while idle
- (2020-01-19) Coco Mang: Simply does not work
- (2019-10-08) 片桐健一: 最高だ
- (2019-10-08) Bugu Jiang: awesome
- (2019-09-02) Carlos Antonio Pinzón: I liked it a lot. However, toggling moves the pointer to the beginning of the message, and therefore, it becomes annoying to switch back and forth between edition and preview.
- (2019-07-11) Filip Filmar: Sadly this extension stopped working in gmail quite some time ago, and has not recovered ever for me. Reporting a bug on the github site gives me assurances that I should just reinstall and all will work again, but that is simply not the case. What to do?

- (2018-04-19) Quinton Ashley: doesn't work anymore
- (2018-04-18) Bran Young: 好几年没有更新依然这么还用! 要是更新一下还了得?
