Made for documents, notes, specs, and checklists
Marker treats Markdown as a document, not source code. Read it on a calm formatted surface, edit in raw or split mode, pull any checklist into its own panel, and export to HTML or PDF when the draft is ready.

### Formats
1. Raw
2. Split
3. Formatted
Clean prose, checklists, readable previews, and exports when the draft is ready.
For people who want to write in Markdown, not wrestle with their editor.
The page is the product. Everything else is supposed to stay out of the way.
Real files, real folders, no database hiding your work from you.
Screenshots from the current build.
Clean typography, checklist rendering, and a low-noise reading surface.
The raw editor stays visible while the rendered document updates right next to it.
Ready-made structures for docs, meetings, specs, runbooks, and a few dozen other shapes a Markdown file tends to take.
A growing collection of public Markdown documents, rendered through Marker so you can study the patterns, not just the source.
Marker reads the files where they already live. No import step, no parallel database, no lock-in.
What Marker actually does
Eight things, in order of how often you'll use them.
View Modes
Three views, one keystroke apart: raw for structure, split when you want both at once, formatted when you want the page to feel done.
Templates
READMEs, meeting notes, postmortems, ADRs, specs, journals, tutorials, recipes, changelogs, runbooks — twenty-plus starter shapes so the cursor isn't blinking at you.
Checklist Focus
Pin any checklist to a smaller side panel, mark items off without losing your place in the document, and drop back into the full page when you need the bigger picture again.
Export
HTML or PDF when you need a file you can share. Rich-text copy for the apps that expect styled text instead of asterisks and brackets.
Readability
Reading ease, grade level, sentence density, vocabulary richness, and the words you keep repeating — all visible without leaving the document.
Library + Import
Drop a .md file onto the icon. Browse a folder of them
in the library window. Or paste a raw URL when the file you want
lives on someone else's server.
Themes
Light for daytime. Sepia for long reads. Dark for night. GitHub when the code is the point. System when you'd rather not think about it.
Gallery
A growing collection of public documents rendered in Marker — a quick way to see how someone else solved the same formatting problem you're staring at.
A clean workflow
Pick a template when the structure is the hardest part. Start blank when it isn't.
Raw mode helps with structure, split mode keeps markup and output in sight, and formatted mode gives the document room to breathe.
Readability signals, top-word counts, and outline navigation help you catch the muddy sections before anyone else has to read them.
HTML or PDF when you need a file. Rich-text copy when the next app
prefers it. Or just hand off the original .md.
Marker at a glance
Marker treats Markdown as a document, not just a text file. The reading view, the export pipeline, and the checklist panel all answer the same question: is this ready to send?
.md, anywhere on diskReady to write?
If the page matters more than the tool, Marker stays out of the way until you need it: steady, readable, and useful when the draft turns into something you can actually send.
