PreviewMarkdown
macOS / Productivité
PreviewMarkdown provides QuickLook file previews and file icon thumbnails for documents created using the popular markdown markup format.
The app provides two app extensions: Markdown Previewer and Markdown Thumbnailer, which can be viewed and managed in macOS’ System Preferences > Extensions. The app itself is simply a container for these extensions.
You must run the app first to gain these benefits.
PreviewMarkdown supports the following markdown features:
*italics* or _italics_
**bold** or __bold__
~~Strikethroughs~~

Quoi de neuf dans la dernière version ?
• Opposites (optionally) attract. Previously if your Mac was in Dark Mode, you could choose to have previews rendered in Light Mode nonetheless. We’ve updated PreviewMarkdown so the same setting now also presents previews in Dark Mode even if your Mac is set to Light Mode. In other words, whatever mode your Mac is set to, previews are presented in the opposite way. Or just turn keep the setting switched off to have previews match your Mac’s current mode.
• Improved error checking in certain cases will hopefully mean fewer thumbnailer crashes.
• Fix truncation of feedback text to prevent loss of styling.
• Reminder: PreviewMarkdown no longer supports macOS 10.15 Catalina, and we will be ending macOS 11 Big Sur support in a forthcoming release.
