github provides online editor to edit code and commit. However, when it comes to
editing web pages, either in markdown format (which is widely supported at github in wikis, comments, gh-pages etc.,)
or HTML, the online editor is not quite *nice*.
Prose.IO, true to it's name is very good at editing content by removing distractions.
The technology is also quite interesting:
It is almost-completely a client side application. Github exposes the user data as REST APIs which is
consumed using github.js library (https://github.com/michael/github).
The only place where server side code is involved is to handle OAuth2 authentication. It will be interesting
to see if this work around is needed for all such APIs or it is corner-case specific to github.
