Renders a live HTML view of a Markdown file. Bring your own editor.

Use Coursier to add the remder-app launcher to your $PATH. For example (assuming ~/.local/bin is in your $PATH):

$ coursier bootstrap ph.samson.remder:remder-app_2.12:0.0.13 -o ~/.local/bin/remder-app

Check out Maven Central for the latest available releases and snapshots.

note: If you don't have coursier, see here.

Provide the markdown file as an argument to remder-app.

$ remder-app README.md

This launches the preview window. Edit with your favorite editor and remder automatically picks up and renders any changes when you save your edits.

I use vim-markdown for my own markdown editing needs. In my ~/.vimrc I map \r to launch remder-app.

autocmd Filetype markdown nmap <leader>r :w \| :silent !remder-app '%' &<CR>

You can embed PlantUML diagrams as a uml code block.

```uml
Alice -> Bob: Authentication Request
Bob --> Alice: Authentication Response

Alice -> Bob: Another authentication Request
Alice <-- Bob: another authentication Response
```

Sequence diagrams work out of the box but for other diagram types you will need to have Graphviz (the dot command) on your system. See PlantUML Installation notes.

To view a (static) rendering in your default browser, press b on your keyboard. There you'll have all the nice things your browser can do for you like printing your document and copy-pasting the rendered HTML into Gmail or Google Docs. (Actually, in my testing, copy-pasting rendered HTML from the remder view works on Mac OS X but not in Fedora).
