About Downright
Downright is a native macOS Markdown application designed to bridge the gap between Finder's Quick Look and full text editors. It opens standard Markdown files as native documents, allowing users to inspect exact source code, preview files throughout Finder, and view non-WebView rendering. Downright tracks external file changes made by other applications or AI coding agents by highlighting modifications and protecting unsaved local edits. Operating completely locally without cookies, telemetry, or account requirements, it provides a privacy-conscious Markdown viewing and editing experience.
