ReText suits Linux users who edit Markdown and other markup files locally and need PDF or HTML export. It is less suited to users seeking built-in publishing workflow management.
StackEdit suits writers who want browser-based Markdown editing with offline writing, cloud sync, or collaboration. It can also fit people who publish to Blogger, WordPress, or Zendesk.
