Glow is a terminal-based markdown reader designed from the ground up to bring out the beauty and power of the CLI. Use it to discover markdown files, read documentation directly on the command line and stash markdown files to your own private collection so you can read them anywhere. Glow will find local markdown files in subdirectories or a local Git repository. By the way, all data stashed is encrypted end-to-end: only you can decrypt it. Simply run glow without arguments to start the textual user interface and browse local and stashed markdowns. Glow will find local markdown files in the current directory and below or if you’re in a Git repository, Glow will search the repo. Markdown files can be read with Glow's high-performance pager. Most of the keystrokes you know from less are the same, but you can press ? to list the hotkeys. Glow works with the Charm Cloud to allow you to store any markdown files in your own private collection.
