Maildown – email campaigns with Markdown syntax

Hi, I just launched the MVP version of my startup, Maildown: https://www.maildown.app , and I'm looking for a bit of feedback on the product. As a serial hacker, I've made a few different products over the years, but have never been happy with any of the email campaign management tools that I've used in support of these - they all seem to be based on WYSIWYG editors, which I find very time consuming. I created Maildown as a solution to this - it allows you to generate your email content using Markdown syntax, meaning that you can create and send your content a lot more quickly. At the moment, its at a very early stage - the functionality is a bit limited and its probably still a bit buggy. However, I'm putting this out there now to see what appetite there is for a tool like this. Thanks, Chris
