Show HN: Markdown Editor and Reader for Mac (kitemarkdown.com)
7 points by antonynjoro 41 days ago | hide | past | favorite | 5 comments
I read Markdown all day, mostly Claude .md, and other AI outputs. Every app I have tried felt janky or too much work to just read an md file. I just wanted to open a .md file and read it the way Preview opens a PDF.

So I built Kite, a Markdown reader for Mac. It has QuickLook just like Preview and I have baked in features that help people reading lot's of AI markdowns.

It one-time purchase, no subscription.

I put it on TestFlight so you can try it before paying anything. I would really like this crowd to try to break it. Tell me which files render wrong,what feels off, what is missing.

Looks awesome! I like it! It would be nice to have windows version too, because sometimes I need to do some AI and not only work on Windows machine.

Also quick question - what tool did you use to create such nice video/gif on your "hero" slide?


Thanks!

I used Screen Studio.


Do you have a version for Window?


Maybe you'd be interested in leaf (https://github.com/RivoLink/leaf). It works on Windows and runs directly in the terminal.


Unfortunately no.
