Everything a Markdown reader should be

And a good deal more than a viewer.

📝

Render anything

GFM, Mermaid diagrams (zoom + export), KaTeX math, charts, VS Code-quality code highlighting, alerts, and frontmatter.

🗂️

Folder workspaces

Open a folder, browse every note in a tree, and search across all of them. Tags, backlinks, and a graph of how your notes connect.

✍️

Highlights & notes

Highlight and annotate like an e-reader. Export as Markdown or Anki cards. Read-aloud, bionic reading, and reading progress.

🌐

Reader Mode

Turn any web article into clean Markdown and save it. Snapshot pages and artifacts to an offline, searchable library.

📤

Edit & export

A live editor that saves back to disk, split view, presentation mode, and export to HTML, PDF, Word, or rich text.

🔒

Private by design

Documents render entirely in your browser. No account, no analytics, no server. Your files never leave your machine.
