Mud: Mark Up or Down

Description

Markdown is suddenly everywhere. It’s how we speak to machines now. It’s how they speak to us. We should make it nice! But you already have a favorite text editor. You don’t need a special tool for writing Markdown. You just need a way to preview the Markdown you’re writing, marked up. That’s what Mud is for. It renders Markdown beautifully, bright or dark. It automatically reloads the document when you save it — or when Claude Code writes to it, or Codex, or whatever you use. Mud shows you both sides of every document: - Mark Up renders your Markdown as styled HTML — GitHub-flavored, with syntax-highlighted code. - Mark Down shows the raw source with line numbers. Hit Space to flip between them. Your scroll position carries over. Mud is a Mac-gassed Mac app with excellent command-line tooling. It’s free and it’s open source. It does one thing — it marks up Markdown! — and it does it really well.

Mermaid diagrams are now drawn in a beautiful sketched-and-watercolored style, distinctly Mud-like. You can choose between a handwritten font or the simplicity of sans serif for your diagram labels. For comments you write, you can choose an emoji avatar to represent you, and tell your coding agent to use the robot emoji.
