Ulysses
Professional writing suite built on markdown for Mac and iOS.
Ulysses is a subscription writing suite for macOS and iOS aimed at authors and bloggers: a unified library holds everything you write as markdown-based sheets, organized in groups with goals, keywords, and filters.
It publishes directly to WordPress, Ghost, and Medium, exports to ebook, PDF, and DOCX, and includes a built-in grammar checker — long-form writing infrastructure on a markdown core.
