What it does
Markdown preview is one of 55 tools in Hexkit, a desktop developer toolbox that runs entirely on your own machine. Side-by-side rendered preview with GitHub-flavoured Markdown.
Because Hexkit is a native app rather than a web page, anything you paste into the markdown preview stays local — there are no uploads, no accounts and no telemetry. You can inspect and preview content even with the network turned off, which makes it safe for tokens, keys and production data.
