Markdown Preview is a free, open-source macOS application for reading and editing Markdown documents through a native interface. It transforms Markdown files into formatted, scrollable documents without requiring a browser or Electron runtime. Users can open files through Finder, drag them onto the application, or preview them with Quick Look. A document outline provides convenient navigation between headings and sections. Read mode supports text selection, hyperlinks, tables, and interactive task checkboxes. Its editing tools include a native formatting toolbar and automatic saving options. Customizable themes, typography, text alignment, and reading widths improve document readability. Additional utilities include printing, zoom controls, command-line integration, and configurable application links.
