About

Glance is a native macOS application for viewing Markdown files with proper rendering and real typography. It integrates with macOS Quick Look so you can preview .md files without opening an editor. The app is intentionally read-only, with no accounts, analytics, or tracking.

Problem

macOS has no built-in way to render Markdown files — Preview doesn't render them and TextEdit shows raw source.

For

macOS users and developers who frequently read Markdown files

How it works

Users install the app into /Applications and open it once so macOS registers it as a Quick Look provider, after which any .md file can be rendered instantly.
