MDDock is a calm, local-first Markdown workspace for people who think in notes. Every note lives as plain Markdown on your device, so your ideas stay readable, portable, and yours — no lock-in, no cloud dependency. Write in a clean, distraction-free editor with syntax highlighting and full Markdown support. Link ideas naturally with [[wiki links]] and let MDDock build a living knowledge graph as you write. Find anything in milliseconds with instant full-text search across your entire library. Read beautifully with desktop-grade typography, a focused reader mode, and support for code blocks, tables, math, and diagrams.
