Release builds are published on GitHub Releases:
Current build targets:
- Windows x64: NSIS
.exeinstaller and.msi - macOS Apple Silicon / M-series:
.app.tar.gz
Only macOS Apple Silicon / M-series builds are published; Intel Mac bundles are no longer supported. If the macOS build is not Apple-signed or notarized, the first launch may require right-clicking the app in Finder and choosing "Open".
pnpm install
pnpm run tauri:devpnpm run tauri:buildLocal Windows builds require Rust/Cargo and Microsoft C++ Build Tools. Local macOS builds require Rust/Cargo, Xcode Command Line Tools, and a macOS environment.
| Feature | What it does |
|---|---|
| Library | Open a folder or one Markdown file and recursively scan common document directories. Quick open, recent files, favorites, pinned docs, and per-document scroll memory. |
| Search | Search filenames, headings, frontmatter, and body snippets. |
| Read and edit | Two primary views: Read and Edit. Edit is the Markdown source view and saves create pre-save backups. Added an edit history panel for previewing and restoring pre-save backups. Added document locking so a file can stay readable while save, image insertion, and history restore are blocked. |
| Rendering | Technical document rendering: syntax highlighting, code copy, KaTeX math, Mermaid diagrams, GFM tables, and GitHub-style callouts. |
| Editing | Editor selection shortcuts quickly insert bold text, links, math, tables, code blocks, and Mermaid diagrams. The help window includes a built-in Markdown guide that opens directly in the reader. |
| Images | Local image insertion, pasted screenshots, dropped images, and missing-image checks. |
| Import | PDF to Markdown draft conversion for selectable-text PDFs. DOCX to Markdown draft conversion with headings, lists, tables, and images where possible. Drag folders, Markdown files, PDF files, DOCX files, or images into the window. |
| Export | Export Word, PDF, reading HTML, and copy Markdown, plain text, or HTML. |
| CLI | The GUI installer ships the md-reader CLI (md-reader.exe on Windows) for system shells, Codex, and other agents. |
| Interface | Chinese / English interface switching. |
| Safety | DOMPurify Markdown sanitization, strict CSP, and workspace-scoped file commands. |
V3 no longer keeps an embedded terminal. The real terminal path was not reliable enough in the Tauri WebView2/xterm rendering chain, so future Agent/V4 work should call the external CLI first.
