MultiMarkdown Composer and nvUltra Update
Completed
An excellent post explaining how MultiMarkdown Composer and nvUltra could complement each other was provided 2 years ago. An update is needed on the plan to launch these 2 apps and the iOS versions. Can these, long-awaited, apps be relied upon to be delivered and supported? I was promised an overpayment credit for the iOS version of MultiMarkdown composer which I have waited far too long for.

As you can see from these forums, development and support is still ongoing and active with nvUltra. We have a few more issues to resolve before releasing 1.0 for sale. But nvUltra is already in use by many.
Once nvUltra for macOS 1.0 is released, then I will turn my attention back to Composer for macOS. Composer and nvUltra share a large amount of the core code base so a large amount of progress has already been made (I already use Composer 5 for myself and have been for a year or more). There are still a few features that are Composer-specific that need to be developed, and then it will need beta testing by others.
As for iOS, I have been using Composer and nvUltra for iOS for the last 18 months+... They both need additional development time for more features, and then a great deal of testing to identify edge cases. They share the core text engine code with the macOS apps, but a great deal of the "wrapper" code is different due to the differences in the operating system.
As more information is available re: nvUltra, Brett and I will release that here. Updates on Composer will be released by me on the Composer site, unless Brett and I decide to consolidate some of that information here.
Thanks!

Thanks Fletcher for the update.
I am a big fan of both you and Brett.
nvUltra is amazing and jam-packed with features that show the love and quality you have put into it.
I am eagerly looking forward to the next version of Composer. Do you have a summary of the enhancements planned for version 5?
Glad to hear that a lot of work has already gone into the iOS versions.
I am up for providing feedback with beta testing.
Wishing you both all the best in all your endeavors.

Version 5 uses the same core engine as nvUltra, so many improvements to the editor. 5.0 will probably not contain a lot of "new features" otherwise, and is focused on fixing some of the subtle bugs that were otherwise hard to track down in the old codebase.
