It supports Hunspell dictionaries for spellcheck of other languages. Ghostwriter is a Markdown editor with html preview. Previously I used StackEdit , but it’s web-based. It has built-in US English spellcheck. It supports Hunspell dictionaries for other languages. To install other languages is easy, for Danish: $ sudo apt install hunspell-da Substitute apt with your distro’s package manager. In Ghostwriter, go to Settings > Preferences > Spell Check (tab), and select the desired language. You might need to toggle the spellcheck or switch the language back and forth for it to work. Here is a list of Hunspell dictionaries in Ubuntu (18.04) repo: Package Language hunspell-af Afrikaans hunspell-an Aragonese hunspell-ar Arabic hunspell-be Belarusian hunspell-bg Bulgarian hunspell-bn Bengali hunspell-bo Classical Tibetan language hunspell-br Breton language hunspell-bs Bosnian hunspell-ca Catalan hunspell-cs Czech hunspell-da Danish hunspell-de-at Austrian (German) hunspell-de-at-frami German (Austria) hunspell-de-ch Swiss (German) hunspell-de-ch-frami German (Switzerland) hunspell-de-de German hunspell-de-de-frami German hunspell-de-med German medical hunspell-dz Dzongkha language hunspell-el Modern Greek hunspell-en-au English (Australia) hunspell-en-ca English (Canada) hunspell-en-gb English (GB) hunspell-en-med English medical hunspell-en-us English (US) hunspell-en-za English (South Africa) hunspell-es Spanish hunspell-eu Basque (Euskera) hunspell-fr French hunspell-fr-classical French hunspell-fr-comprehensive French hunspell-fr-modern French hunspell-fr-revised French hunspell-gd Scottish Gaelic hunspell-gl Galician hunspell-gl-es Galician hunspell-gu Gujarati hunspell-gug Guarani hunspell-he Hebrew hunspell-hi Hindi hunspell-hr Croatian hunspell-hu Hungarian hunspell-is Icelandic hunspell-it Italian hunspell-kk Kazakh hunspell-kmr Kurmanji hunspell-ko Korean hunspell-lo Laotian hunspell-lt Lithuanian hunspell-ml Malayalam hunspell-ne Nepalese hunspell-nl Dutch hunspell-no Norwegian hunspell-oc Occitan hunspell-pl Polish hunspell-pt-br Brazilian Portuguese hunspell-pt-pt Portuguese hunspell-ro Romanian hunspell-ru Russian hunspell-se North Sámi Hunspell hunspell-si Sinhala hunspell-sk Slovak hunspell-sl Slovene hunspell-sr Serbian hunspell-sv Swedish hunspell-sw Swahili hunspell-te Telugu hunspell-th Thai hunspell-uk Ukrainian hunspell-uz Uzbek hunspell-vi Vietnamese Edit (06/06/2019) : Recently discovered Inkdrop through HN . It’s a note-taking app that supports Markdown and can sync across devices. I think the best feature is its ability to sync the scrolling in editor and HTML output, which is absent in Ghostwriter. I only need a simple editor for my current use case, though I might consider it when I have >50 posts. Reading through the HN comments, I also discovered Visual Studio Code also supports Markdown and HTML preview. For a Markdown editor, it’s probably overkill though.
