Good but not great. UI is buggy when you are resizing.
You need to have a new-line before starting a list.
There is no dark mode - but there is a stupid mode, where you can set the editor/preview in dark mode. But not the whole app (it looks weird). Further, horizontal line does not show well in dark theme.
Finally, simple things like select few lines of code and do shift-tab does not work. Basically the software is overpriced for the quality and effort put into it.

Not nearly as good as the simple, elegant and free Mou (I donated there) for rapid composing. Lightbox has too many bells and whistles and is kind of clunky on the screen in comparison. But I couldn't get postbox quality output from Markdown business letters in Mou. The export PDF does the trick almost at default settings in LightPaper. Delighted with the purchase as I have no other way of turning Markdown business letters into truly printable versions which doesn't take a lot of custom fiddling with formatting (waste of time).
In the end, I'm delighted I own LightPaper too.

Ahoy, there, 42 squares! You still developing this fine app? Haven't seen much dust in about a quarter, and I'm just trying to stir you up! This app is sooooo close to really great, that I do hope you carry it forward. LOVE everything the mini does, and I use it as my go-to scribbler. But with some tweaks on the Editor, this thing could do it all. My personal wish? A bit more "pretty" and functionality on the document sidebar. Last doc sorts at least...

Easily the best markdown editor. The ONLY thing I hate is that EVERY time I open the app a popup encourages me to Subscribe to the their list. I subscribed, but still appears every time when the app is started. Until I click in Join or Cancel, the app doesn't responses, I can't close it until I click one of these options. Anoying.
