Notepad now allows you to write Markdown without installing anything extra. Use toolbar shortcuts to apply formatting, switch views, and clear formatting when needed.

In the latest beta version of Notepad (11.2504.46.0), it is also possible to create new texts from a text prompt. You can then edit the document until you are satisfied.
