What's everyone's favorite README editor? (lemmy.world)

Looking for a good README editor. With maybe git functionality, but not necessary

Like adding shields/badges/assets within automatically
managing a directory like structure by generating new MD files in a directory like folder structure.

Essentially an IDE like environment just for markdown file management and a WYSIWYG editing experience

Obsidian?

More like a notes/personal wiki app, than a readme editor.

That said, Obsidian is a diamond in the rough. Building a personal wiki while learning a skill and referencing it later (via search or category) is a true life hack. It feels like augmenting your memory capacity.

Truly invaluable if you need to reference things often but your knowledge base is highly specialized (e.g., I'm a neurology professor)
