Iceberg Editor: A beautiful markdown editor for WordPress.

Hi all! 👋 I'd like to share with you Iceberg, a project we’ve been working on to make writing in WordPress fun again. Iceberg is a beautiful, flexible and entirely theme-able markdown editor for crafting articles with the new WordPress block editor. Iceberg allows you to write in WordPress in a way that feels much more natural – and enjoyable – than working with blocks. The best part of Iceberg is that every aspect of the editor is entirely customizable. From colors, fonts, line width/height, markdown support, shortcuts, interface display options, and more. It's one of the funnest projects I've worked on for sure and I couldn't be more proud of what we've accomplished. We're super excited to finally share Iceberg with you all. Enjoy! Cheers, Rich

@richard_tabor this looks brilliant - is it possible to use outside of wordpress, and edit/publish via the rest API?

@graeme_fulton Thanks! It works if you can bring Gutenberg outside of the editor as well. It's a bit tricky now, but we'll investigate how to bring it outside of WP.

@richard_tabor yeah this would be great! At the moment, I have some forms that can post to the wordpress database on my site already..so I was going to just use something like froala.com/wysiwyg-editor/ to turn the front end textbox into an editor. But it's difficult to manage the media library - Gutenberg outside of the PHP environment would be perfect for me! And Iceberg, a great layer on top! Please keep me updated if you look into it in the future - i'll do the same!

A couple of questions: Is it a plugin? Assuming it is a plugin, what happens to the work created if the plugin is deactivated?

@davidbennett Yes it is a plugin and the contents that being created are still using the existing WordPress core blocks. When you deactivate the plugin or switch to default Gutenberg editor, the contents are intact and will work as expected!

@davidbennett @phpbits That was exactly my question… this makes this a no-brainer! Otherwise, we would be locked in… Loving it.

@davidbennett Iceberg doesn't actually manipulate your content - it manipulates the core block editor. If you deactivate Iceberg entirely, it has no affect on your content what-so-ever. But if you activate Iceberg, you're gonna enjoy writing in WordPress again ;)
