mdpeek - Quick Look for Markdown — double-click any .md then read

Booting a full editor just to read a README is overkill. mdpeek is a 3 MB Markdown reader that opens any .md file instantly as a clean webpage — spot a typo? F2 flips the page into an editor. F3 for split-screen. - Live refresh: save in any editor, it re-renders in place - Tabs + outline that tracks your reading position - 9 themes + dark mode, one right-click to switch - Mermaid & KaTeX render natively - Export to PDF and single-file HTML 100% local: no account, no ads, no cloud. Ever.
