Features and Highlights
Rich And HTML Text Editing
Whether you love HTML or can't bear the sight of it, MarsEdit's editor will thrill you. If you prefer the best of both worlds, you can switch easily between the two.
Think Outside The Browser
Browser-based interfaces are slow, clumsy, and require you to be connected to the internet just to use them. Browsers are perfect for reading web content, but not so great for creating it. If you're serious about your blog, you need a desktop blog editor. If you're lucky enough to have a Mac, nothing is more powerful or more elegant than MarsEdit for macOS.
Wildly Compatible
Works with WordPress, Blogger, Tumblr, TypePad, Movable Type, and any blog that supports a standard MetaWeblog or AtomPub interface.
Perfect Previews
Build a template to match your blog, then let the app's live preview show you how your posts will look before you publish them. Use Markdown? The tool will preview that, too.
Your Editor Or Ours
Combine the power of the app with your favorite editor. Integrates cleanly with BBEdit, TextMate, WriteRoom, TextWrangler, or any editor that supports the ODBEditor suite.
Media At Your Fingertips
Quickly scan your iPhoto, Aperture, Lightroom, or Flickr libraries, and insert images into your blog post with the click of a button.
Easy File Uploads
Upload images and files directly to your blog, or attach them to a post for automatic upload-on-publish. The app will even resize them to suit your needs.
Re-Blog It!
Add “Blog This” bookmarklet to your web browser's button bar. Now when you discover something cool, you can start a new Mars Edit post with the click of a button.
Offline Freedom
Write when you want to, without an internet connection. Fine-tune your masterpiece on the boat, plane, or train, and publish when you get back online.
Note: 30 days trial version.
