Create sophisticated formatting for your prose and code on GitHub with simple syntax.
We are exited to announce Sketchboard initial integration with GitHub.Now you are able to upload diagrams directly from Sketchboard to GitHub.You can keep documentation and images on a same repository.
Omegatron. Acrobat 7.0 professional key. Example usages:
- Create project intro with a diagram that makes it easier to get into the project.You can refer images from the repository README.md file
- Have an overview project design at GitHub wiki
- Update GitHub Pages technical blog with sketch diagrams
- Stack Overflow The World’s Largest Online Community for Developers.
- A sample README for all your GitHub projects. GitHub Gist: instantly share code, notes, and snippets. If you want more syntax highlighting, format your code like this: update and install this package first $ brew update $ brew install fvcproductions. Now install npm and bower packages.
- A few people have asked me how I do the Github-style syntax highlighting on this site. Here’s an example Ruby script with highlighting.
See e.g. lift-json component from Lift project. It has a great component intro with an image. Picture makes it much easier to understand (as a user) and how to work with the component.
Now with Sketchboard GitHub integration you don’t need to leave browser to make updates to the documentation. Now your workflow could be following:
- Sketch diagram at Sketchboard
- Export whole diagram or parts of it to GitHub
- Update README.md file at GitHub to refer just updated image. GitHub has a nice online editor.
Naturally GitHub keeps versions for image and you can even view the differencedirectly in GitHub.

Export to GitHub
In order to export diagrams from Sketchboard you need to be logged in. Currently Sketchboard GitHub integration works only on public repositories.
Steps to export
- “Download” Menu => Select Export to GitHub
- Login to GitHub
- Select public repository where image should be uploaded
- Select correct branch, path and name for the exported image
- NOTE: Image name cannot contain spaces
- NOTE: You can change exported image type, but GitHub doesn’t display svg and pdf files
- NOTE: Only selected elements will be exported or all (if no selection)
In case image already exists in the selected path, content is just update. Sketchboard automatically fills commit message with a back link, so you can update diagram later.
We show rendered markup in several places on GitHub, most notably including a
project’s main README on the Repository page itself.
Starting today, GitHub supports relative links in markup files. Now you can
link directly between different documentation files, whether you view the
documentation on GitHub itself, or locally, using a different markup renderer.
You want examples of link definitions and how they work? Here’s some
Markdown for you. Instead of an absolute link:
…you can use a relative link:
and we’ll make sure it gets linked to user/repo/blob/branch/other_file.md
.
Readme Syntax Github
If you were using a workaround like [a workaround link](repo/blob/master/other_file.md)
,
you’ll have to update your documentation to use the new syntax.
This also means your documentation can now easily stand on its own, without always
pointing to GitHub.
