Ink

A beautiful Markdown reader for Mac.

Open a Markdown file and read it instantly in a calm native window. Ink keeps the document first: warm paper, excellent typography, Quick Look, folder browsing, and source inspection when you need it.

Now available as a Mac TestFlight beta.

Renders Markdown beautifully.

Ink is a reader first, but the renderer cannot be thin. Tables, task lists, callouts, code, images, math, Mermaid, and source inspection should feel like parts of the same quiet document system.

Tables

GFM	Ready
Images	Inline

Code

func open(_ file: URL) { render(markdown) focus(reading) }

Open the real document.

Reader first. Mac native.

Ink is intentionally bounded. It is not a notes database, wiki, IDE, or AI chat surface. It is the calm document viewer you wanted Finder to have for Markdown.

Read-only by default

The document opens rendered and stays trustworthy. Source mode is inspection, not accidental editing.

Folder aware

Open a folder, start at the README, and move through local docs without creating a library or vault.

Quiet controls

Search, outline, source mode, share, and text size are present without turning the toolbar into a cockpit.

Markdown reading, the Mac way.
