Markdown,
pleasantly readable.

QuokkaMark turns long Markdown files into calm, navigable documents—with a heading outline, instant search, diagrams, equations, Quick Look, and zero editing chrome.

QuokkaMark’s cheerful quokka mascot reading a document

No editor. No account. No telemetry. Just your document, looking handsome.

What We Found

QuokkaMark keeps the structure visible while the document stays generous, quiet, and readable.

Built for reading

Small app.
Very good manners.

01

Navigate the shape

A native sidebar turns headings into a click-to-jump outline, including nested and duplicate sections.

02

Find the sentence

Press ⌘F to search the rendered document, highlight visible matches, and keep your place.

03

Keep your editor

QuokkaMark refreshes when another app saves. Write wherever you like; read somewhere calmer.

04

Render the clever bits

Mermaid diagrams, KaTeX equations, tables, code blocks, lists, quotes, and links work offline.

05

Meet Finder halfway

Quick Look previews Markdown directly from Finder. Double-click when you want the full navigator.

06

Take it with you

Print normally or export a clean PDF or standalone HTML document. Your files never leave your Mac.

Private by absence.

Nothing to sign into.
Nothing to phone home.

Open source from day one

Read it. Fork it.
Make the quokka proud.
