Some Markdown editors open and simply let you write, with no sidebar and no cloud connection. These lean toward the light and native, with a couple of fuller-featured ones for comparison.
A quiet, local-first Markdown writing app for the Mac. Notes stay as plain text on disk with syntax highlighting, preview, tags and full-text search, and the restrained interface keeps attention on the sentences. It suits long writing sessions away from cloud sync and feature clutter.
A fast Markdown note app for Mac and iPhone. Notes are stored locally as plain-text Markdown that you can sync yourself, with tags, outlines, code blocks and attachments, and both launch and search stay quick. It suits people who want a light note tool without handing content to a cloud service.
A writing, note-taking and publishing app focused on Markdown, built from native technology on each platform. It combines an editor with folders and library modes plus publishing functions, supporting CommonMark and GitHub Flavored Markdown, tables, maths, task lists and in-place previews of diagrams. Notes sync through iCloud, documents can be published to WordPress, Evernote and similar services, and the macOS version can generate static blogs.
