The Markd window rendering a Markdown document in Preview mode

Built for terminal workflows

Reading and authoring, without the IDE

One process per file

One file, one window

Every markd file.md opens its own focused window. No tabs and no background daemon: built for tiling window managers and terminal workflows.

Edit | Preview

Read and edit in one place

Rendered typography with KaTeX math, Mermaid diagrams and copy-ready code cards. Switch to the raw source with a line-number gutter and back.

Live reload

Pairs with your editor

Keep Markd beside Neovim, Helix or Emacs. When the file changes on disk, Markd reloads it and keeps your scroll position and search.

Dual-MIME clipboard

Paste anywhere

Copy as rich HTML places styled HTML and clean plain text on the clipboard, without UI buttons, so tables, code and equations paste cleanly into mail and docs.
