01 / WRITE & EDIT
One window.
Two ways to write.
Write a README, study notes or project documentation. Start with plain text and refine every detail alongside it.
- 01
Write your way
Switch between Markdown source and visual editing for text, headings, lists and tables.
- 02
See your words take shape
Split the window, adjust the pane ratio and follow a preview that updates as you write.
- 03
From a note to a complete document
Add links, checklists, tables and a table of contents. Paste clipboard images into an assets folder beside your document.
Light / Dark / Follow Windows
02 / ADVANCED PREVIEW
Complex ideas.
Clear on the page.
From equations to workflows, bring the details that matter into one Markdown document.
Diagrams from text
Describe processes and relationships with Mermaid diagram syntax.
Code you can follow
Syntax highlighting for over 100 languages, with a copy button on code blocks.
Structured documents
Footnotes, a [TOC] table of contents, YAML frontmatter and local images.
Enable advanced preview for these features. Microsoft Edge WebView2 Runtime must already be installed; Markdo does not install it automatically.
03 / YOUR WRITING SPACE
Keep your train of thought.
Keep your work, too.
Organize documents, find the right passage and return to an earlier version when needed. Small tools for an uninterrupted writing session.
Every document within reach
Tabs, a folder tree, fuzzy file search, recent files and pins. Use the outline to jump to the right section.
A way back to your work
Autosave, recovery copies and up to 20 history versions per file. External changes are checked before overwriting.
Space to concentrate
Full-screen focus, a centered typing line, custom shortcuts and basic Vim/Emacs navigation.
Your documents, on your computer.
No account is needed to write. Files, settings, history and recovery copies are stored locally. The advanced renderer bundles its libraries and fonts and does not automatically load Internet images.

04 / EXPORT & SHARE
Write it once.
Share it your way.
HTML
A standalone document for offline viewing, with supported images, math and diagrams.
DOCX / TXT
Move to Word with basic formatting, or keep the content as plain text.
PNG / JPEG / PDF
Export document images. Print or save a PDF through your system PDF printer.
DOCX does not yet embed images, equations or diagrams. PDF is created through the print dialog.
FAQ
Before you start writing.
Is Markdo free?
Yes. All features are free, without ads, subscriptions or a required contribution.
Can I work offline?
Yes. Documents, preferences, recovery copies and history stay on your computer. The advanced renderer includes its libraries and fonts. It requires an installed Microsoft Edge WebView2 Runtime.
What is the difference between the two previews?
The default native preview works without WebView2. Enable advanced preview for local images, KaTeX math, Mermaid diagrams, footnotes and syntax highlighting. Visual editing also uses WebView2.
Can I export to PDF or Word?
Markdo exports DOCX, HTML, TXT, PNG and JPEG. Save a PDF through the print dialog using a system PDF printer. DOCX export currently includes basic formatting, tables and code, but does not embed images, math or diagrams.
Does Markdo sync documents between devices?
Version 1.0 stores files locally. It does not include cloud sync or online collaboration.
