These are my must-have macros for running games online. I make full use of the compendium, which gives these macros access to common actions and rolls, saving me time.
Remember to add /w gm or @{selected|wtype} to hide sensitive info from your players. WTYPE is an attribute used in the 5th Edition OGL character sheet, a prerequisite for most of these.
Here's what my bar looks like.

This is the third in my series of conversion documents for D&D 5th Edition. (You can find the one for Next here and the one for 3.5/3E/Pathfinder here.) I created this document by comparing the 5E versions of monsters from the Monster Manual with their 2E counterparts. I also referred to two sources for converting monsters from 2E to 3E: Wizards’ official

A lot of important government documents are created and saved in Microsoft Word (*.docx). But Microsoft Word is a proprietary format, and it's not really useful for presenting documents on the web. So, I wanted to find a way to convert a .docx file into markdown.
On a mac you can use homebrew by running the command brew install pandoc.
