MarkPad (formerly DownmarkerWPF) is a visual Markdown editor for Windows built with WPF, featuring real-time side-by-side preview, spellchecking, and publishing to blogs, GitHub, and Jekyll sites. It was developed by the Code52 community project.
Use cases

- edit markdown files with spellcheck on windows
- publish markdown directly to a blog or github
- manage a jekyll site's markdown content
- paste clipboard images into markdown documents
When to choose
- you are on Windows and want a dedicated WPF Markdown editor with side-by-side preview
- you blog with Markdown and want direct publishing to blogs, GitHub, or Jekyll
When to avoid
- you need a maintained editor - the project has seen little activity since its Code52 days
- you are not on Windows or lack .NET Framework 4.0
- you need cross-platform or modern Markdown editing features
