MacMD Viewer

The author of MacMD Viewer got in touch with me and asked if I would be interested in looking at it. It’s a commercial application with various pricing, starting at $19.99 for use on a single computer (at a time), and while I’m glad it’s a one-time purchase and not a subscription, I don’t think it’s for me. Here’s what the author had to say after reading one of my Bear posts. MacMD Viewer is a small read-only Mac app for reading Markdown files, and readability is most of what it does: 12 themes, light and dark mode, zoom, and a spacebar preview in Finder.
