Native macOS Markdown editor

Markdown,
beautifully refined.

Write in plain Markdown and watch it become a typeset document — live. Offline LaTeX math, Mermaid diagrams, a generous Markdown superset, and exports that look the way you meant them to. Your words stay in a single .md file on your Mac. No server. No account. No subscription tax.

Runs fully offline · No accounts · No telemetry · macOS 14+

Features

Everything you'd expect — and a lot you wouldn't.

A real editor for people who care about how the page looks when it lands.

📝

Live, typeset preview

A calm WYSIWYG preview updates as you type — headings, tables, code, callouts, all rendered beautifully.

Offline LaTeX math

Inline and display math, typeset by a bundled MathJax engine. No network, ever — renders the moment a document opens.

📊

Mermaid diagrams

Flowcharts, sequence, and more — rendered locally and embedded crisply in every export.

🖼️

Images, done right

Insert PNG, JPEG, GIF, or SVG. Keep them linked in an assets/ folder or embed them — your choice.

Tables with a ribbon

A Word-style formatting ribbon adds section styles, font size, and one-click column alignment — left, centre, right.

🎯

Focus & presentation

A distraction-free focus mode, and a full-screen presentation mode that turns your document into a deck.

🕘

Local version history

Snapshots with diff & restore, kept entirely on your Mac. Wander back without fear.

📦

Portable documents

Send a self-contained Markdown file, or zip everything into a tidy .remarque bundle.

The language

It speaks fluent Markdown — and then some.

Standard CommonMark, plus the niceties you always wished it had.

Export

Write once. Send it anywhere.

What you see in the preview is what prints — and what exports.

Privacy

Private by design.

Everything you write stays on your Mac. We built it that way on purpose.

🔒

Zero network access

A hardened runtime with no outbound connections. Math and diagrams render fully offline.

📄

Plain, open files

Your documents are ordinary .md files. No proprietary database, no lock-in, yours forever.

🚫

No accounts, no telemetry

No sign-up, no analytics, no ads, no cloud. Nothing to leak because nothing leaves.

Bring your writing home.

Remarque for macOS 14 Sonoma and later.
