When editing a new blog post on Steemit.com, the layout is a bit annoying with the text editor at the top and the preview at the bottom. It makes editing posts difficult because you have to keep scrolling up and down to see the preview and go back typing.

Here is the desktop version:
It also works in night mode:
In narrow screens, the preview pane behaviour is unchanged and will sit below the editor.
I also had to modify the files for the comment editor as they share the same editor logic. When creating a comment, there will be no side-by-side feature but there is a slight change in design as seen below:
