Marklet: Markdown Editor
Live preview for Markdown
Only for Mac
$2.99
Mac
Marklet is a fast, native Markdown editor for macOS, built in Swift. Since Marklet is built on TextEdit, it is light, familiar, and instantaneously opens. It
formats your text as you write: bold, italics, headings, lists, and links style
themselves inline, and the raw markers show only when your cursor is on them. No
split screen, no separate preview pane. Just clean rendered Markdown you can still edit.
Tables, code blocks, and LaTeX math render inline as you type, so you never
leave your document to see the result. And it all stays editable: tweak rendered
tables directly, resize images right in place, and shape your document to your
heart's content.
• Native Swift app, not Electron: light, fast, and easy on memory
• Feels like TextEdit, with live Markdown formatting built in
• Formats as you type: bold, italics, headings, lists, links
• Raw markers appear only where your cursor sits
• Tables, code blocks, and LaTeX math, rendered inline
• Edit rendered tables directly and resize images in place
• Work across documents in tabs (Cmd+T)
• Command palette for everything, Obsidian style (Cmd+Shift+P)
• Print your notes cleanly (Cmd+P)
• Make it yours: adjustable appearance, fonts, and more in Settings
• Files stay plain .md, open and edit them in any app
• Fully local: no account, no subscription, no cloud, no tracking
Your writing stays yours: plain .md files on your Mac, with nothing to sign
into and nothing phoning home.

Marklet 1.2
Saving and safety
Natural undo: Cmd+Z steps back the way you typed, a burst at a time, and never fights the save.
Quiet saving: the "changed by another application" alert no longer appears on your own saves.
Unsaved changes backup: a private copy of unsaved work is kept and offered back after a crash, with a side by side View Changes before you restore. Separate toggle in Settings.
Version history for manual saves: browse earlier versions in Marklet, with preview, arrow keys, and a confirmation before restoring.
A "Saved" confirmation under the title with Auto Save on, and the "Edited" label now renders reliably.
Editing and styling
Bold italic text reveals every marker with the caret inside, and code inside bold or italic keeps that emphasis.
Choose text, background, selection, caret, and link colors.
Continuation lines inherit their block's indent and spacing; foreign line endings survive list and table edits.
Shortcut recording refuses reserved and duplicate shortcuts; custom Cmd number bindings take priority over tab switching.
Plus a batch of fixes for freezes, images, and styling staleness.
