MarkEdit is a free and open-source Markdown editor, for macOS. It's just like TextEdit on Mac but dedicated to Markdown.
MarkEdit is an opinionated app, please check out the Philosophy section regarding the design and values behind the app.
Surely, we have tons of Markdown apps, why bother making a new one? Please check out Why MarkEdit.
MarkEdit is dead simple, you should be able to use it without learning anything. However, we still made a User Manual in case there are some hidden and nice features that are hard to discover.
Would you like to build and customize the app by yourself? Check out Development.
Please leverage GitHub issues, thanks in advance.
Please note that we are cautious about adding new features.
MarkEdit doesn't collect anything. For details, refer to Privacy Policy.
Sorry, no concrete plan yet. To be focused, we only support the latest two major macOS releases. Please check out #175 for details.
Last-compatible version tags: macos-12.
Sorry, no concrete plan yet. Even though most of the code works on both macOS and iOS flawlessly, we wanted to only focus on Mac and bring the best experience there.
We know CodeMirror (the underlying text edit component we use) supports RTL, but we can only focus on languages we read, and right now we don't have bandwidth to test other languages, sorry.
The code of MarkEdit is free to (non-commercially) use anywhere, in any form, with or without modifications, you don't need to let us know but we appreciate it if you could also contribute back to the community. For example, it wouldn't be appropriate to release this app on the App Store for $1.99 without adding any real value, see #790.
Hope you find this project useful and find your inner peace.
Thanks.
