<commit_before># ![Markdown Here logo](//github.com/adam-p/markdown-here/raw/master/src/common/images/icon48.png) Markdown Here

*Markdown Here* is a Google Chrome, Firefox, and Thunderbird extension that lets you write email in Markdown and render it before sending. It also supports syntax highlighting (just specify the language in a fenced code block).

Writing email with code in it is pretty tedious. Writing Markdown with code in it is easy. I found myself writing email in Markdown in the Github in-browser editor, then copying the preview into email. This is a pretty absurd workflow, so I decided create a tool to write and render Markdown right in the email.
