View Markdown files rendered in your browser

MarkView renders Markdown files in your browser with a clean reading experience.

Open .md or .markdown files and instantly see them rendered with proper formatting, syntax-highlighted code blocks, and your choice of light or dark themes. It is built for reading README files, documentation, notes, and technical specs without opening a full editor.

Highlights:

  • Renders Markdown to HTML using PowerShell's built-in converter
  • Opens in your default browser with no separate app window to manage
  • Highlights code blocks with bundled highlight.js support for 190+ languages
  • Typesets inline and display math offline with bundled KaTeX
  • Includes 10 theme variations across light and dark modes
  • Opens links to other local Markdown files in the viewer
  • Works offline with no data collection
  • Blocks remote images by default until you opt in per document
