Calliope is a VS Code extension that brings Ulysses-style hybrid WYSIWYG editing to Markdown. Headers, bold, and italics render inline as you type — syntax markers stay hidden until the cursor is nearby. Three-state visibility (hidden / ghost / visible) keeps the writing experience distraction-free without losing the escape hatch back to raw Markdown.
Named after Calliope (Καλλιόπη), the Greek Muse of eloquence and epic poetry — “she of the beautiful voice.”
