MomentMD

A Markdown editor built for macOS

Writes like a document.
Saves as clean plain text.

Type ## and it becomes a heading. Syntax appears only in the block your cursor is in. Open and save — untouched text never changes by a single byte.

MomentMD main window: a file tree with colored groups on the left and a rendered document with a table, task list and math on the right

Built for people who write Markdown every day

Live rendering, no preview pane

Headings, bold and links render as you type; tables, task lists, code blocks, math and Mermaid diagrams appear right in the text. Move the cursor away and the syntax folds away.

Lossless saves

Only the blocks you changed are written back. List markers, table spacing, blank lines, line endings, encoding (UTF-8, GBK, UTF-16) and BOM are preserved, so your Git diff shows only your edits.

Three modes, all editable

Live Preview, Split (source on the left, rendered on the right — edit either side, kept in sync) and Source. Switch with ⌘/ and keep your place.

Write faster

Type / on an empty line to insert anything; right-click Quick Insert; a floating format bar for selected text; edit tables cell by cell and drag to resize columns; 10 built-in templates.

Your files are everything

Open any folder on your Mac and organize with groups, colors and drag and drop. No private database, no hidden metadata. Autosave, crash recovery and external-change detection.

Export and share

PDF with bookmarks, single-file HTML, long PNG image, Word (.docx), or copy as rich text for email and publishing platforms.

Built for the everyday
