Is there a markdown editor which let me open .md files from Windows?
I have looked at various editors, but those I came across all had their own build-in file navigator which they insisted you'd use. I always hate that; it's the one thing I dislike about Godot. So...
I have looked at various editors, but those I came across all had their own build-in file navigator which they insisted you'd use. I always hate that; it's the one thing I dislike about Godot. So is there one where you can simply open your .md files directly from Windows?
Edit: What I'm after is WYSIWYG, not just synstax highlighting.

If your morning routine were the subject of a montage in a movie, what would be the song that played over the top of it?
Inspired by a random chat I had at work last week, I'm curious to know what Tildes makes of this (admittedly slightly daft) hypothetical!

Looking for a good, modern alternative for PHP nuke

Way back in the day, I used to run a fan site for a game that ended up teaching me a lot about PHP, perl, databases and so on. Currently, I'm looking to rebuild that site, but PHP nuke is now hopelessly outdated and joomla/Drupal are not the direction I want to go in. So far, I've found php-fusion (from GoDaddys cpanel installer) which seems close, but I'm curious if there is a closer analog out there.
The ideal for me is the old school blocks down the sides with content in the middle layout, with add-ons like forums, image gallery etc. Cheers for any help 😁
