Mac
SimpleMD is a light, fast macOS app for reading and editing Markdown one folder at a time.
No setup — just open a folder.
■ Open a whole folder
· Opening a folder expands its file tree, subfolders included
· Switch between recent folders from the sidebar in one click
· Relaunch and your last folder is restored as it was
■ Reading
· Preview rendered in GitHub style
· Tables, task lists, blockquotes, horizontal rules
· Syntax highlighting for code blocks (Swift, Python, JavaScript, and more)
· Automatic dark mode
■ Writing
· Live styling in edit mode — formatting appears as you type
· Formatting toolbar and shortcuts for bold, italic, strikethrough, headings, lists, blockquotes, code blocks
· Saves automatically when you stop typing
· Reloads on its own when another app or editor changes the file
■ Light and quiet
· Fully offline — no network requests
· No account, no sign-in
· Collects no usage information
· Runs in the macOS App Sandbox, reaching only the folder you chose
Good for scattered .md files: READMEs, developer docs, journals, notes.

New
• Images used in a document now appear. Relative paths work as written.
• Drag an image in or paste one while editing, and the file is put away and the link written for you. The location is a setting.
• Export the document you are reading as a PDF, laid out exactly as it appears on screen.
• mermaid code blocks are drawn as diagrams — flowcharts, sequence diagrams and more.
• Tick task list items while reading. The change is saved to the file straight away.
• Now available in English, German, French, Chinese and Japanese.
Improved
• Web links now open in your default browser. They used to open inside the app, with no easy way back to the document.
• Links to another Markdown file open here in the app.
• Your place in a document is kept when it reloads.
