Visual MD

Markdown, made for reading

Only for Mac

Free

Mac

Turn any folder of Markdown into a quiet, searchable library. Read READMEs, notes, and specs with measured typography, themes, search, and a live outline. Finally, a Markdown reader built for actual reading. Visual MD turns any folder of Markdown into a quiet, searchable library. Open a folder or drop it onto the window. Every README, note, spec, and nested document appears on the shelf, without moving a file. Built for long reading • Switch between serif and sans reading modes. • Choose a light or dark theme. • Read on a measured page with an outline that follows your position. • Resize or hide the shelf and outline when you want fewer distractions. Made for real documentation • Search the current document or your entire library. • Follow Markdown links, heading links, custom anchors, and footnotes. • Read syntax-highlighted code, tables, task lists, math, Mermaid diagrams, and images. • Save a workspace that remembers its folders, order, open document, and reading preferences. Local by default Visual MD reads only the files and folders you choose. Your library stays on your Mac. There is no account, sync service, upload pipeline, analytics collector, subscription, or in-app purchase. Visual MD is a reader, not an editor. That narrow purpose is the point.
