The latest version of the mkdocs-live-edit-plugin, v0.4.0, is now available here on PyPI!
Changes:
Furthermore, this latest version enables the usage of the mkdocs-live-wysiwyg-plugin, which, as its name implies, replaces the plain textarea in mkdocs-live-edit-plugin with a WYSIWYG Markdown editor. This plugin uses mkdocs-live-edit-plugin as a dependency; pretty cool stuff!
