A fast, native macOS application for reading and previewing Markdown files with a document outline, edit mode, Mermaid diagram rendering, and LaTeX math support. It integrates with Finder via Quick Look and can be set as the default handler for .md files.

• preview .md files from finder with spacebar
• view mermaid diagrams in markdown offline
• render latex math in markdown documents
• quickly edit markdown files with a formatting toolbar
• navigate long markdown documents via table of contents
• set a default app for opening markdown files

When to choose

• you prefer a lightweight reader with an optional edit mode

When to avoid

• you require plugin or theme ecosystems
