grip.md

The easy way to serve a markdown file in the browser

pip install grip
grip markdown.md

Will serve your file at localhost:xxx (some port number)

And if/when you modify the file, the page will automatically refresh!

Wonderful stuff.

This problem comes up a lot for me though:

LookupError: unknown encoding: cp65001
Logged from file _internal.py, line 87

And this solution from stackoverflow seems to help:

set PYTHONIOENCODING=utf-8

Or in powershell-ese...

$env:PYTHONIOENCODING = "utf-8"
