Markleaf: Markdown Reader
Clean previews for local files
Only for Mac
$1.99
Mac
Open Markdown in a clean, native reader—with Quick Look, syntax highlighting, math, Mermaid diagrams, local images, themes, and PDF export.
Markdown deserves a reader that gets out of the way.
Markleaf turns local .md and .markdown files into calm, polished documents—right on your Mac. No account required. Your documents are processed on your device.
READ WITHOUT THE CLUTTER
Open files from Finder, drag them into Markleaf, or use Command-O. The native interface keeps the document—not the controls—at the center.
PREVIEW FROM FINDER
Use the Quick Look extension to check a Markdown file without breaking your flow. Select a file, press Space, and keep moving.
SEE THE WHOLE DOCUMENT
• Syntax highlighting for many programming languages
• KaTeX rendering for inline and display math
• Mermaid diagrams for flows, sequences, and more
• Tables and local images
• Auto, Light, and Dark appearance modes
SHARE A CLEAN COPY
Export the rendered document as a PDF with Command-E.
LOCAL-FIRST BY DESIGN
Rendering tools are included with Markleaf, so ordinary documents can be read offline. Markleaf does not require an account and does not upload your documents to a Markleaf server. Documents that reference remote images may connect to those image hosts.
For README files, technical notes, research, specs, and documentation, Markleaf makes Markdown feel at home on the Mac.
Open Markdown. Read beautifully.
