Markdown Viewer opens .md files with Dax’s own Markdown parser and renderer — tables, nested lists, task lists, block quotes, footnotes, and fenced code all come out the way the document says. You can edit and save in the same window.

Open it

Press R from any app.

How it works

1

Pick a file

Choose a .md file from the file picker, or open one from Finder.
2

Read it

The document is rendered with full Markdown support: headings, lists, tables, code blocks (syntax-highlighted), images, video, block quotes, footnotes, and task lists.
3

Edit it

Change the document and save. The viewer is a workspace, not a read-only preview.

Quick Look

Dax ships a Quick Look extension. Press Space on any .md file in Finder and you get the same rendered view — the Finder preview and the Dax viewer use the identical renderer, so they can’t drift apart.

Privacy

Everything runs on your Mac. No file content leaves the device.
