Tired of Switching Tools Just to Write Markdown?

Ever Felt Markdown Writing Should Be Way Easier?
Okay, honest question — why does writing Markdown still feel harder than it should?
You open one editor to write, another tab to preview, Google to check Mermaid syntax, and then pray your math renders correctly on GitHub.
If you’ve felt this pain, congrats — you’re officially part of the club.
That exact frustration is why Markdown Weaver exists. Think of it as that one chill friend who says:
“Bro, just write. I’ll handle the rest.”
It’s a fast, local‑first Markdown editor that runs directly in your browser.
- You type Markdown on one side, and instantly see a perfect live preview on the other.
- No sign‑ups.
- No backend drama.
- No setup rituals.
Just open it and start writing.
What Makes It Feel Good to Use
- Live preview – see results as you type, no refresh needed.
- GitHub‑Flavored Markdown – what you see matches GitHub.
- Mermaid diagrams built‑in – flowcharts and sequences without plugins.
- KaTeX math support – clean equations for docs and notes.
- Syntax highlighting – readable, language‑aware code blocks.
- Multiple view modes – editor‑only, preview‑only, or split view.
- Easy export – Markdown, HTML, or PDF.
- Local auto‑save – your work stays safe in your browser.
- Keyboard shortcuts – because mouse‑only slows you down.
Everything runs client‑side, so it’s fast and privacy‑friendly.
