ERA

Programmers usually have very elaborate workflows, and the tools they use to help them in their development endeavors are all very particular. During the development process, brainstorming how a project is to be handled is among the core parts of developing a product, but where do you note everything down?

Note-taking apps are plentiful, yet there's hardly anything out there to unify the note-taking and documentation part with the coding itself. ERA is a tool that brings the Markdown's benefits to note-taking, while also offering various development-friendly features, such as syntax highlighting, a dual-panel layout, and more, to simplify an important part of the developer's workflow.

The app seeks to offer a convenient way for developers to manage and annotate their code, and it does so by providing an interface where both of those things coexist. Markdown works to provide an environment where one can handily structure and format their text to look its best, with a few additions to make the software more usable by developers.

The additions include a syntax highlighting function to help with code readability, supporting popular languages like JavaScript, Python, Rust, and so on. The user interface is quite intuitive to support that, especially as a dual-panel layout can be toggled in the settings, so users can see their code's effects as they're writing it.

Managing and revising code can be a cumbersome process, but thanks to the dual-panel layout of this program, users can be more efficient with their code. The dual-panel layout is thus both a time-saver, and a nice-to-have addition, which furthers convenience.

Aside from that, when you're finished with your coding, the app can export your work in Markdown format, which makes sharing easier.

ERA is an app worth trying if you're looking to improve your development workflow: it takes no time at all to get into it, and the ease-of-use is evident right from the start.
