I was introduced to HackMD while working on an open-source project. It’s a collaborative editing tool for Markdown documents and there’s an API

I wanted to be able to programmatically edit one of my documents with a daily update. The API is easy-to-use and my only challenge was futzing with escape characters in bash strips representing the document Markdown content.

You’ll need an account with HackMD and an to Create API Token that I’ll refer to as TOKEN.
