MacDown Reviews and details

Social recommendations and mentions

• Epub rendering with Pandoc

  I write a LOT of documentation in Markdown for $DAYJOB. I normally use Marked2 (not free, but I paid for my license 7-8 years ago) or MacDown (free) to preview them, and to export them to PDF. Both of these programs are specific to macOS, but a web search for "markdown editor" turns up a few dozen others, for other platforms. Most of these will have an "export to PDF" function built into them. Source: 5 months ago

• Good Free Application For Reading `.md` Files On Mac Pro

  MacDown is free, open source and super simple. Has been my go-to Markdown editor for years. Highly recommend. Source: about 1 year ago

• High probability of conversion issues from PDF to Epub

  So I convert the PDF to Markdown format. Then I use my Markdown editor of choice, Macdown, to clean up the text and then convert the resulting document into the format that I want. Source: over 1 year ago

• Markdown editor's with a toolbar?

  If you're talking about buttons to help you style your text so you don't have to remember the syntax, then MacDown will have you covered. Source: over 1 year ago

• Today I Deleted Notion

  Apple Notes or macdown (https://macdown.uranusjr.com/) or even just vim + grep (maybe fzf also) have been the easiest for me, and they don't require an internet connection. - Source: Hacker News / almost 2 years ago

• Markdown Processor

  I'm unaware of a self-hosted web platform fitting that exact use-case, but most "markdown editors" will have an export-to-html option if you prefer GUI tools. You could then host those rendered HTML files with any web server. Source: over 2 years ago
