A simple, fast editor for Markdown, notes, and code. Open it and start typing. There's no account to make and nothing to set up. Your Markdown is highlighted as you write — headings, bold, links, lists, code blocks — and when you want to see how it'll look, switch to Preview. Everything saves as a normal file in the Files app and iCloud Drive, so your writing stays yours: open it anywhere, move it, or back it up however you like. It's free to use, with what you need for everyday writing: • Live Markdown highlighting and a clean Preview • Four themes: System, Light, Dark, and Sepia • Find, a heading outline, and a live word count • A Markdown cheat sheet for when the syntax slips your mind • Your choice of font, size, and line spacing • Share or export as Markdown Text Editor Pro is a one-time purchase, no subscription: • Syntax highlighting in code blocks for Swift, Python, JavaScript, JSON, and more • Five more themes: Paper, Solarized Light, Solarized Dark, Nord, and Dracula • Focus and Typewriter modes for heads-down writing • Split View on iPad, so you can edit and preview at once • Line numbers • Find & Replace, with regular expressions • Writing stats: daily goals, streaks, and an all-time word count • Export to HTML and Rich Text It's made for iPhone and iPad, works with a hardware keyboard, supports dark mode, and fits into iPad multitasking.
