MD QuickView

MD QuickView is a plugin that extends the Quick Look feature on Mac to display Markdown files (.md) as rich text.

It utilizes the GitHub CSS style, most familiar to developers, ensuring tables and code blocks are rendered beautifully.

MD QuickView can be safely
installed from the Mac App Store.

Just place the app in your Applications folder, launch it once, and enable the extension in System Settings. No complex configuration required.

The style you
know and love.

We've adopted the standard GitHub stylesheet for previews.
Tables and code blocks that are hard to read in plain text can be confirmed naturally, as if you were viewing a repository in your browser.
