Uberwriter

Uberwriter is a GTK+ based distraction free Markdown editor, mainly developed by Wolf Vollprecht. It uses pandoc as backend for markdown parsing and offers a very clean and sleek user interface.

To use uberwriter, please make sure you have some dependencies installed:

  • Pandoc, the program used to convert Markdown to basically anything else (the package name should be pandoc in most distributions)
  • Of course, gtk3 etc. needs to be installed as well since this is a gtk application
    • Please find these packages on your distribution: python3 python3-regex python3-distutils-extra python3-levenshtein python3-enchant python3-gi python3-cairo

You can build UberWriter with sudo python3 setup.py build, and then run it with ./bin/uberwriter

It's also possible to build, run and debug a flatpak package. You'll need flatpak-builder for this:

  • cd to the flatpak dir of the repo
  • flatpak-builder --install --force-clean some_folder_name uberwriter.json # this installs and cleans the build folder)
  • flatpak run de.wolfvollprecht.UberWriter
  • you can also debug with the following: flatpak-builder --run --share=network some_folder_name uberwriter.json sh
