About
Markdific is a simple, lightweight markdown viewer and editor that opens any .md file and renders it beautifully, with clean headings, tables, code, math, diagrams, and images. You can view any .md file with proper formatting and no setup required, edit with autosave so your work is never lost, and switch between clean themes to suit how you read. Export to PDF, Word, or HTML in a click, jump around long documents with the outline sidebar, or use split view to see your source and rendered result side by side. Recent files reopen in one click. Markdific renders the full range of markdown: headings, paragraphs, and inline styles like bold, italic, and strikethrough; bullet, numbered, and nested task lists; wide tables with alignment; fenced code blocks with syntax highlighting; LaTeX math inline and block; Mermaid diagrams rendered automatically; and inline images loaded in place.
