MARKDOWN VIEWER FREE
Markdown Viewer
Make sense of a folder full of .md files.
Point it at your docs, notes or AI skills folder and see every Markdown file at a glance: as a table or a map of which file links to which. Click any file to read it. Free for Mac and Windows.
Free. macOS 11 or later (Apple silicon and Intel), Windows 10 or 11 (64-bit). No account.

TAKE A CLOSER LOOK.
GETTING STARTED
A SIMPLER WAY TO START.
Choose a folder
Add up to 10 folders with Markdown files: docs, research, notes, a wiki or your AI skills.
See how it fits together
Subfolders become tabs. Switch between a table and a map to spot links, orphans and what changed recently.
Read and follow links
Click a file to read it, follow its links to the next file, and jump back when you are done.
GOOD TO KNOW.
Where do I download it?
Use the Download for Mac or Download for Windows button above. Step-by-step install help and all versions are on GitHub: github.com/nvminhtu/markdown-viewer.
My computer warns me the first time I open it. Is that normal?
Yes, for this first version. On Mac, open System Settings, then Privacy & Security, and click Open Anyway. On Windows, if SmartScreen appears, click More info, then Run anyway. A signed, notarized Mac build is on the way.
How is it related to ShotMatic?
ShotMatic is our desktop app for managing many projects and AI agents. Markdown Viewer takes its Docs view and turns it into a small free app of its own.
Will it upload my files?
No. It only reads the folders you choose, on your own computer, with no account and no data collection.
