What can you preview?

Markdown Viewer vs Markdown Editor

A Markdown Viewer focuses on displaying and previewing Markdown content in a readable format. A Markdown Editor allows you to create and modify Markdown files while viewing the output.

If your goal is simply to open, read, or preview Markdown content, a Markdown Viewer is often the fastest and simplest option. When you need a full writing workspace with export options, try the Markdown Editor.
