Apple - Which application to preview .md files?

The superuser question, Markdown Live Preview Editor?, provides a wealth of options:

  • BBEdit
  • TextMate
  • Mou
  • Marked
  • MarkdownLive
  • Atom
  • Marked 2
  • MacDown

In additional to those, you can install a markdown QuickLook plugin for Finder based previews.

I would like to add the excellent - and open source - MacDown to the list.


Visual Studio Code

VSCode Markdown Example Source: https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/languages/markdown#_markdown-preview

Microsoft's Visual Studio Code has been surprisingly pleasant to use as a general purpose IDE, and elegantly renders markdown.
