PX7 Markdown Write
A calm place to write Markdown.
A native Mac editor built for writing — in-editor syntax highlighting, a live preview, focus mode, an outline and smart list editing. Then it hands the exact same plain .md file to the rest of the PX7 tools. No vault. No lock-in.

The writing
It reads like a designed page while you type.
Syntax highlighting, in the editor
Headings scale, bold and italic render, code and links tint — right where you type, not just in the preview.
Live split preview
The same renderer the whole family uses, side by side and scroll-synced. Editor · Split · Preview, one click.
Focus mode + smart editing
Dim everything but the sentence you're in. Enter continues lists and checkboxes, Tab indents, brackets auto-pair.
Outline · wikilinks · palette
Jump by heading, autocomplete [[notes]] and follow them across files, and run any command with ⌘⇧P.
No lock-in
Write here. Finish anywhere in the family.
Typeset it as a PDF
Send the note straight to Typeset for a polished PDF.
Publish the folder as a site
Hand the folder to Publish and get a self-contained website.
Make a shareable card
Open it in Cards for a social image — or preview in Markdown Viewer.
Paste anything as clean Markdown
⇧⌘V turns rich text and web HTML into tidy Markdown — the Paste engine, built in.
The promise
Your document remains a plain file.
Write opens and saves plain .md in place — atomic saves, never a silent clobber. No proprietary store, no vault, no account. The best writing experience on the Mac that still leaves you with a plain file other tools can read.
Why
The Markdown editor that's part of a toolchain.
Write edits files in place and can pass the same document to tools for typesetting, publishing, sharing, previewing and task collection. No import step or proprietary document store is required.
