Reader, Editor & Preview
Only for Mac
Free · In‑App Purchases
Mac
Wide tables now use the whole window, and text goes as large as you like: Cmd+, Cmd- or pinch. New in MarkView 1.5 and free for everyone.
Open any .md file and read it as it was meant to look. Or point MarkView at a folder and get notes that link to each other, with backlinks and search across all of them.
LINKED NOTES
• Type [[ to link one note to another, with completion as you type
• Rename a note and every link pointing at it is updated
• Backlinks under each note show what points here
• Note properties in YAML frontmatter, edited as a table with pickers
• Tabs, back and forward, and search across every note in the folder
DIAGRAMS AND CODE
• Mermaid diagrams render inline: flowcharts, sequence diagrams, gantt charts
• Code blocks get real syntax highlighting in over 100 languages
• GFM tables, task lists and footnotes come out the way GitHub shows them
LIVE PREVIEW
