nvALT vs MWeb

nvALT has a simple text box at the top (similar to that of a web browser) and when you start typing inside it, nvALT immediately displays a drop-down box of all the notes that contain the text you are searching for. The more you type, the more the search is narrowed down.

nvALT is not only used for simple text editing but also as a powerful tool for taking notes, TODOs, phone numbers and every other piece of information that can be stored in a plain-text file.

This is because nvALT is not designed only as a tool to write text, but also as a powerful search and organize tool for plain-text files.

Has built-in support for MultiMarkdown 3.

Math-heavy note takers, look no further. Mweb even supports the basic LaTeX equation labeling and referencing, which you cannot find in any other markdown editor as of early 2018. Library management is another major plus.

MWeb can publish Markdown files to various web platforms including (but not limited to) Wordpress, Metaweblog, Evernote, Blogger and Tumblr.

MWeb has syntax highlighting for some popular programming languages inside fenced code blocks.

Once you are done editing your note on your mac, it's immediately available in your iOS devices, great for checkup anytime as you go.

Supports adding pictures to a Markdown file either through drag-and-drop or by pasting it.

It has file tree, can post article, can upload pictures, can render in pretty preview themes, and is small and fast.
