Lavish HTML Artifact Editor

otherstrong
Original post

TL;DR

Lavish is an editor for HTML artifacts, positioning HTML as a modern alternative to Markdown for rich content authoring. It provides a dedicated editing experience for HTML documents rather than traditional Markdown-based workflows. As AI-generated and web-based content increasingly uses HTML rather than Markdown, Lavish addresses the need for a purpose-built editor that treats HTML as a first-class authoring format rather than an output format.
