Quirely Markdown+LaTeX Editor vs MarkRead

Quirely is two full editors in one native app: real Markdown and real LaTeX. Neither is a bolt-on. If you only ever write Markdown, you get a complete, beautiful Markdown app — nothing hidden behind TeX. If you live in LaTeX, you get a genuine editor that compiles your projects — not a Markdown app with math sprinkled in. A CALMER READER Open a file and just read. Quirely renders clean, typographic Markdown — never forcing a split screen or a cramped editor when all you want is the page. Switch to Code, Edit, or Split only when you choose. Quick Look previews .md and .tex straight from Finder. MARKDOWN, RENDERED RIGHT - Mermaid diagrams: flowcharts, sequence diagrams, and more — live, and styled to your theme. - LaTeX math: inline and block equations, typeset beautifully. - Code blocks with syntax highlighting for dozens of languages. - Tables, task lists, footnotes, callouts, full GitHub-flavored Markdown. EDIT LIKE A PRO - Four modes: View, Code, Edit (block editor), and Split. - Word-processor formatting: bold, italic, underline, strikethrough, highlight, links, super/subscript — with theme-aware colors. - Drag-and-drop block editing: reorder paragraphs, lists, tables, and diagrams by hand. - Visual Mermaid editing: drag nodes, add edges, recolor — no syntax required. - Spreadsheet functions in tables: =SUM(A1:A3), =AVERAGE, =IF and more, with a full function keypad on Mac. - Collaborate over bonjour. Share a workspace or document and each collaborator can edit with their own cursor and view. Entirely private; no external servers A REAL LATEX EDITOR - Open and compile .tex — single files or full projects with a root document, chapters, and BibTeX. - The same four modes: read the typeset PDF, edit raw source with themed syntax highlighting, or use structured Edit mode — rendered paragraphs, equations, and tables you double-click to edit. - Chapters open inline in the root document and save back to their own files. - Tabular grid editor with the same spreadsheet formulas as Markdown tables. - SyncTeX jump between source and PDF; rendered diffs between versions (latexdiff). - Export LaTeX to PDF, HTML, or clean Markdown — cite/ref/figure numbering intact. - LaTeX stays classic black-and-white by default; apply your theme with one toggle. FEYNMAN DIAGRAMS Build QED/QCD diagrams visually — vertices, propagators, gauge bosons, loops — or paste tikz-feynman. Quirely renders them natively and derives the amplitude iℳ from the Feynman rules; edit the equation and get the diagram back. Free on every tier. MAKE IT YOURS Ten hand-tuned themes recolor every token — headings, code, links, tables, diagrams. Duplicate any theme and edit every color, font, and size. Switch live. A REAL WORKSPACE - Open a folder with file navigation, backlinks, and tabs. - Semantic search and exact full-text search. - Version history with rendered diffs. - Mark positions to insert text across documents. ON-DEVICE AI (Pro) Draft, rewrite, and synthesize across your notes with Apple Intelligence — on-device, no API fees, no account. EXPORT & SHARE Polished HTML or paginated PDF with your theme, math, and diagrams intact. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Everything runs on your device. Your files stay plain Markdown and LaTeX you own — no account, no lock-in. ONE APP, EVERY DEVICE Universal for Mac, iPad, and iPhone. One-time purchases — never a subscription. Write in Markdown or LaTeX. Read either beautifully.

Markdown, page by page. MarkRead makes AI-generated writing easier to read closely, and easier to think through. Every .md reads two ways: Scroll, one continuous page, or Pages, laid out side by side so more fits on screen. Pinch the pages into a stack and spread them out again right where you left off; switch between the two any time without losing your place. The more AI writes, the more it needs a proper read. MarkRead lays a .md file out as a calm reading page: headings, lists, quotes, code, and tables in clear order, so the point comes out fast and you decide with something solid under you. Reading in Pages • Pages, side by side See more at once and page through long reads. Up to four columns on iPad, two pages on iPhone in landscape, one to four on Mac. • Stack, then spread Gather your pages into a stack, then spread them out again, right where you left off. On iPhone and iPad, just pinch and spread. • Scroll or Pages, one tap Two ways to read the same document. Switch any time and stay on the same line. Features • Open. Start reading. AI-generated Markdown opens into a clean page for thinking. • Paper-like layout Clear hierarchy pulls the key points out of any long read. • Tune it your way Set size and margins until the page matches how you read and judge. • Back in one tap Return to recent documents instantly, without losing your train of thought. • Structure you can see Code, tables, and headings stay distinct, so decisions come faster. • Fine-tune the page Typography controls stay within reach and out of your thinking. • 19 Pro themes (Pro) Switch the theme, switch the lens you examine the text through. • Reading Sets (Pro) Group related AI reports and documents into one organized set. • Seamless resume (Pro) Reading progress syncs automatically—switching devices never breaks your focus. • Privacy No server, no account. Files stay on the device; what syncs goes through your own iCloud private database. On iPhone and iPad • The whole set at a glance Progress and status for every file, all in one view. On Mac • Immersive review A focused window built for deep reading and clear-headed judgment. • Drop in, start reading Drag an AI-generated .md onto the window and go straight into review. • The whole picture Outline and library on one screen—see it all, then decide. Who it's for People who read AI-generated reports, technical docs, notes, and long-form Markdown; people who move between iPhone, iPad, and Mac in the middle of a document; people who would rather keep related files in one set than hunt through folders; people who want more than one page on screen at a time.
