## What it is
Marksman is a Language Server Protocol (LSP) server for Markdown that provides code-assist features like completion, goto definition, find references, rename refactoring, and diagnostics. It supports wiki-links for Zettelkasten-style note taking and integrates with editors such as VSCode, Neovim, Vim, and Emacs.

## Use cases
- autocomplete markdown links and wiki-links in my editor
- find references to a markdown note across my vault
- detect broken wiki-links and duplicate headings in markdown notes
- rename markdown notes and update all links automatically
- set up zettelkasten note-taking with lsp support in neovim
- goto definition for markdown headings and anchors

## When to choose
- you write Markdown or Zettelkasten-style notes in an LSP-capable editor like Neovim, Emacs, or VSCode
- you want completion, navigation, and diagnostics for markdown links and wiki-links
- you want a single self-contained binary that works on macOS, Linux, and Windows

## When to avoid
- you only need a markdown previewer or static site generator rather than editor intelligence
- your editor has no LSP client support
- you need WYSIWYG markdown editing rather than plain-text assistance

## Facets
- artifact type: service
- maturity: active
- function: editor, documentation, markdown, parser
- domain: text-editors, documentation, developer-tools
