The current version, 0.9.23-1, still has some minor bugs and the OS X version is still in beta but, wow, does it look great!

Nonetheless it also supports LaTeX and code highlighting, which makes it interesting for developers as well. It features a file tree, plenty of exporting options and even supports whole projects (exporting multiple markdown files at once), live preview directly in the editor, and some Zettelkasten functionalities that enables the linking of files. Tags can also be used to sort your work.
