OverType
Markdown editor built as a transparent textarea with live preview
Visit overtype.dev ↗What is OverType?
OverType is a lightweight markdown editor that layers a transparent textarea over rendered output, combining plain-text editing with formatted preview. It requires just one script tag and no dependencies, making it easy to embed in any project. The editor supports standard markdown formatting, keyboard shortcuts, optional toolbars, and native browser features like undo/redo and selection.
Designed for developers who want WYSIWYG editing without complexity, OverType works through a simple abstraction: text input syncs with a preview layer below. The maker built it with Claude Code, and it totals 91KB including all functionality.
