Open your Markdown files for beautiful, distraction-free reading with syntax-highlighted code blocks, tables, task lists, and clickable links. When you need to edit, switch to a comfortable editor with live preview.
Manuscript renders Markdown natively without a web engine, resulting in instant startup and low memory usage. It follows your system theme automatically and adapts to any screen size, from phones to desktops.
Rich tables are now on by default — tables render as a grid with borders, a styled header row and inline formatting; plain-text tables remain available in Preferences → Writer. Split view keeps the preview aligned with the editor block by block instead of by a whole-document ratio, and double-clicking the divider resets the panes to equal halves. A table no longer stops the divider from narrowing the preview, the header shows the real folder of files opened through the file chooser, and the open-folder button stays visible when the file tree is hidden.
