Overview

A WYSIWYG rich-text editor for GitHub issues, comments and pull requests. Powered by CKEditor.

# About GitHub Writer is a WYSIWYG rich-text editor for GitHub. The extension is available when creating or commenting on issues, reviews, pull requests, and wikis.

Great extension! A WYSIWYG editor like this is needed for ALL web sites with comment input fields, if there is a way to detect if a website supports markdown input. Or perhaps the user could manage the allow list, like great suspender does.

Great plugin, just what I have been looking for. Are you able to make this plugin work on ZenHub too?
