grip VS grip-mode

A popular implementation of the idea written in Python:

For creating static web pages I usually use grip [1] to convert markdown. If you’re lazy this even works as a blog. I suppose if you’re even lazier you can just use a GitHub repo directly.

I'm putting together a little package to preview markdown files similarly to how they are rendered on GitHub. Previously I've used grip (and grip-mode), which are awesome, but I wanted a little more room for customization and to avoid hitting the GitHub API on every change.

Any recommendation for grip in Rust? So far I only find this.

If you cannot push markdown notes to a git hosting platform and must have a local markdown previewer, have you tried grip installed via pip?

I use one of these: - Sublime Text Package MarkdownPreview - Command line tool Grip - Browser Markdown editor https://dillinger.io/

Getting "click an .md file and it opens in the browser for viewing" for this Markdown viewer would be awesome: https://github.com/joeyespo/grip

Check out grip: it’s a Markdown previewer that runs in the background, checks for updates, and renders the output to HTML on a locally running server. The nice things is that changes to the Markdown document are updated automatically and immediately.

So I looked around and found a great, less popular emacs package called grip-mode which is basically an emacs integration for the command-line python application called grip. Grip starts a live server locally to render a project's README file using the GitHub Markdown API so you can get live preview before pushing to GitHub or using the web editor. So enough talk let's see how we can make this work.
