MarkDown Reader - MD Viewer

Fast, clean Markdown viewing

Free

New in 1.7: tabs, colour, and collapsible answers. Tick a box and the file changes, and it is all still plain Markdown you can read anywhere. MarkDown Reader is a free, lightweight viewer for Markdown files. Double-click any .md file and read it beautifully rendered — no editor chrome, no distractions, just your document. It also turns a checklist into somewhere to work. Tick a task and the change is written straight back to the file, one character, instantly. Add a note to any item and it is saved as an ordinary indented bullet, so every other Markdown tool still reads it. On the Mac, drag a file onto an item to attach it, and click the chip to open it again later. Nothing is locked in a database. Everything this app writes is plain Markdown you can read in any editor. - Clean rendering of headings, tables, code blocks, and images, in colour, light or dark - Several documents in one window as tabs; drag Markdown files in from the Finder (macOS) - Your windows and tabs come back when you reopen the app (macOS) - Collapsible answers, superscripts, highlights and other HTML formatting tags - LaTeX math, typeset offline: $…$ inline and $$…$$ display - Interactive task lists: click a checkbox and the .md file updates instantly - Notes on any checklist item, saved as plain Markdown - Attach files to checklist items by dragging them in (macOS) - Clickable file references: a path in a code span opens in your editor (macOS) - Table of contents sidebar for long documents - Full-text search with match navigation - Live reload — edit the file elsewhere and the view keeps up - Safe saving: a tick or note never overwrites changes made in another app - Use the full window width for wide documents (macOS) - Zoom, print, and export to PDF - Light or Dark on your terms: follow the system, or pin the reader to either (macOS) - Copy the document's path or reveal it in the Finder (macOS) - Opens .md, .markdown, .mdown, .mkd, and .mkdn files - Sandboxed and private: no accounts, no analytics, no data collection

  • This app has not received enough ratings or reviews to display an overview.

Colour, and more of Markdown. • Documents have colour now: blue headings, coloured bullets and checkboxes, tinted notes and attachments, underlined links, and brighter code highlighting. PDF export keeps the plain look. • More Markdown renders: HTML formatting tags inside text, such as line breaks, superscripts, highlights and collapsible answers; plain web addresses as links; numbered lists that start at any number; character entities like the copyright sign; and names like snake_case_name. YAML front matter at the top of a file is hidden. • Safer saving: ticking a box or writing a note only saves if the file is unchanged since you last saw it, so edits made in another app are never overwritten. Anything that couldn't be saved stays on screen for you to copy.
