Write Markdown and see it rendered as you type

  • No ads
  • No tracking

A fast, focused Markdown editor

Marker is a Markdown editor and previewer for iPhone, iPad and Mac. Open any Markdown file, edit it in a clean monospaced editor, and see exactly how it will look in a live rendered preview. No accounts, no clutter, just your words.

Marker on iPad: the Markdown editor beside the live preview Marker on iPad: code blocks, tables and links in the preview

Write without memorising syntax

A built-in formatting toolbar inserts the Markdown for you. Select some text and tap to apply:

  • Bold, italic and strikethrough
  • Inline code and fenced code blocks
  • Headings 1 to 6
  • Bulleted and numbered lists
  • Blockquotes
  • Links and images
  • Tables
  • Horizontal rules

Nothing selected? Marker inserts a placeholder and highlights it, so you can type straight over it.

See the result instantly

  • iPad and Mac. The editor and preview sit side by side and update as you type
  • iPhone. Switch between editing and preview with a single tap
  • Links. Links in the preview open when you tap or click them
