MarkdownBlaze is a fast, no-fuss viewer for Markdown (.md) files. Point it at a document, or at a whole folder, and it renders a clean, readable page in a moment, then gets out of your way.
It is also the rare Markdown viewer that prints properly. Choose from eleven document themes, switch to page view to see the document laid out on A4 sheets exactly as it will print, and pick the look for each print from a bar along the bottom of the window. Only the document is printed, never the app around it.
It understands the Markdown you actually use: tables and task lists, footnotes, code with syntax highlighting for about 190 languages, Mermaid diagrams, KaTeX math, callouts, and Obsidian wiki links, tags and comments.
The sidebar shows the folder you are reading as collapsible panels, with the outline of the current document. Links between Markdown files open inside the app, and the view refreshes when you save the file in your editor.
MarkdownBlaze makes no network requests of its own and has no accounts, ads or tracking. The only time anything goes online is when a document you open references a resource on the web, such as a remote image.
Files on removable media (USB drives) are reachable once you run: snap connect markdownblaze:removable-media

Snaps are applications packaged with all their dependencies to run on all popular Linux distributions from a single build. They update automatically and roll back gracefully.
Snaps are discoverable and installable from the Snap Store, an app store with an audience of millions.
Snap is available for CentOS 7.6+, and Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.6+, from the Extra Packages for Enterprise Linux (EPEL) repository. The EPEL repository can be added to your system with the following command:
sudo yum install epel-release
Snap can now be installed as follows:
sudo yum install snapd
Once installed, the systemd unit that manages the main snap communication socket needs to be enabled:
sudo systemctl enable --now snapd.socket
To enable classic snap support, enter the following to create a symbolic link between /var/lib/snapd/snap and /snap:
sudo ln -s /var/lib/snapd/snap /snap
Either log out and back in again, or restart your system, to ensure snap’s paths are updated correctly.
To install MarkdownBlaze, simply use the following command:
sudo snap install markdownblaze
Browse and find snaps from the convenience of your desktop using the snap store snap.
