Text Editor vs Boreal Markdown Editor

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. There are no ads and no tracking, and the app doesn't collect anything about you.

Boreal Markdown is a focused iOS document tool for people who already keep notes, drafts, specs, and reports in plain Markdown files. Open a .md or .markdown file from Files, read the rendered preview, edit the source, then save intentionally or export a clean PDF. Boreal Markdown is built around the small document loop, not a new notes database or cloud workspace. Included for everyone: - Open Markdown and plain text files through iOS file access - Read a rendered Markdown preview with clear document typography - Switch between preview and source editing - Apply headings, bold, italic, links, lists, and code to the cursor or selected text - See saved and unsaved states near the document title - Choose Save, Discard, or Cancel before leaving a document with unsaved edits - Save changes back to the opened file when iOS file access allows it - Export the rendered document as a PDF with paper, theme, text size, and title options - Share the PDF or save it back to Files - Persist appearance, accent, editor text, and PDF defaults between launches Boreal Pro is an optional one-time purchase. It unlocks: - Document outline navigation - Find and replace - Markdown cleanup - Split editing and preview on supported layouts - Advanced PDF themes, margins, table of contents, page numbers, headers, footers, and reusable presets Boreal Markdown is local-first. There is no account, subscription, hosted sync service, AI processing, backend document storage, or collaboration system. Use Boreal Markdown when you want a quiet iPhone and iPad workbench for opening, editing, saving, and sharing Markdown files as PDFs.
