MarkEdit 1.37.1 for Mac
Mac UtilitiesMarkEdit is a Markdown editor for macOS built on a simple idea: it should feel like TextEdit, but made for Markdown. The app is small, starts fast and opens plain text files without pulling you into a library, an account or a subscription. Writers, students and developers who keep notes, docs and readmes in Markdown will like how it styles the source text so headings, lists and quotes are easy to scan while you type.
