About StackEdit
StackEdit is a free, open source Markdown editor that runs in the browser. It offers a live preview and can sync your files with cloud storage services.
What it does
You write Markdown on one side of the screen and see the rendered output on the other, with scroll sync keeping the two aligned. StackEdit can sync files with Google Drive, Dropbox and GitHub, and it can publish posts to some blogging platforms. It supports several Markdown flavors, LaTeX math and simple UML diagrams, and it keeps working offline after the page has loaded.

Who it's for
StackEdit suits writers, developers and students who want a quick Markdown editor with nothing to install. It is a good choice for anyone who keeps notes in Markdown and stores them in cloud storage, and for people who want to collaborate on a file while keeping control of where it lives.
Pricing and good to know
StackEdit is open source under the Apache 2.0 license and is free to use in the browser. It can publish to blogging platforms such as Blogger, WordPress and Zendesk. Your files stay in the storage services you connect, and merging changes from several collaborators works best when everyone uses the same sync setup.
