Finally, a Markdown readerbuilt for actual reading.

Your Markdown deserves better than a cramped preview pane. Open any folder and Visual MD turns every README, note, and spec into one quiet, searchable library. Install it on Mac or Windows, or try the reading experience in your browser.

Don’t take the landing page’s word for it.Read something.

Open the playground No account. No tour. Start with the sample library or open a folder your browser can access.

Your folder already knows where everything goes

No importing. No new filing system. No ceremony.

Visual MD meets your Markdown where it already lives. Folder names become shelves, nested folders stay nested, and the files on disk remain the source of truth.

  1. Drop the folder.

    Choose the folder you already use. Visual MD finds every Markdown file inside it, including the deeply nested ones you forgot were there. Nothing is copied, moved, or renamed.

  2. Settle in.

    The interface steps back. Prose gets a measured line length while code, lists, tables, math, and diagrams keep their shape. Long documents stop feeling like a test of endurance.

  3. Never lose the thread.

    The outline follows the document as you read. Jump to any heading, wander as far as you need, then find your way back without searching the source.

Because your notes are not a growth metric

Your Markdown stays on your device.

No account to create. No cloud library to feed. No reading history to monetize. Visual MD reads the folder you choose and minds its own business.
