Note
Windows SmartScreen Notice: Windows executables are not signed with an Authenticode certificate, so SmartScreen shows them as an unrecognized app. Click "More info" → "Run anyway". The antivirus heuristic that used to flag the portable .exe no longer does.
Note
macOS Gatekeeper Notice: the .dmg is not yet notarized, so the first launch is refused — "Markpad cannot be opened because the developer cannot be verified" — and the dialog offers only Cancel and Move to Trash. Two ways past it, both one-time:
- Control-click (right-click) Markpad.app in Finder → Open → Open. That dialog has the button the double-click one does not.
- Or double-click once and press Cancel, then go to System Settings → Privacy & Security, scroll to Security, and press Open Anyway beside the message naming Markpad. Authenticate with your password or Touch ID and confirm.
Folder access is remembered across updates, from 2.7.5 on. macOS ties a folder grant to the app's signing identity, and Markpad now carries one that does not change when the code does, so the permission survives an update instead of being asked for again. Updating from a release older than 2.7.5 asks once more — the signature changes the identity, and the old grants belonged to the unsigned one. Signing is not notarization: the first-launch dialog above is unaffected.
The two Windows files differ only in that one installs and one does not.
Package managers: choco install markpad-app (Windows), sudo snap install markpad (Linux).
What Markpad renders
Every syntax Markpad renders is in one document — download markdown-syntax.md (简体中文) and open it in Markpad: the preview shows each feature working, the editor beside it shows how each one is written. Give the same file to an AI and it knows exactly what Markpad can render: ask it to reformat a document you already have, or to write a new one that uses the whole range — callouts, tables, footnotes, maths, diagrams — and open the result here. Read it on GitHub.
What's Changed
- fix(save): a buffer with no file has no baseline to have moved by @PathGao in #723
