MarkIOY is a local-first Markdown editor that lets you write from what you can see. Write what you see - Edit rendered headings, paragraphs, lists, and tables directly. Markdown updates as you work. - Switch between Visual, Markdown Source, and Split view to compare structure and result at the same time. Keep every document portable - Open and save local .md files from Files, iCloud Drive, Finder, or a chosen workspace. - Work with front matter, task lists, callouts, code blocks, tables, footnotes, LaTex math, and Mermaid diagrams. Turn images into Markdown - Take a photo, choose from Photos, or select an image file. Crop the area first, then generate Markdown for a formula, table, chart, or printed note. - Image conversion starts only when you choose it. The selected crop is used solely to return Markdown and is not stored or logged. Finish anywhere - Export to PDF, standalone HTML, or Word document. No account is required. Your core writing workflow stays local, and the Markdown stays yours.
