Open MD files — free, in your browser

Markdown (.md) is plain text with simple characters for formatting, such as # for a heading. You find it in documentation, README files and note apps such as Obsidian.

With the free downloadlink viewer you open a .md file directly in your browser. Nothing is installed, and without an account nothing is uploaded either — when you are logged in, the viewer keeps your file in My files.

What the viewer does with MD files

You read the text neatly formatted, with headings, lists and links.

Good to know

Editing is not possible in the viewer: you read the text.

How it works

  1. Click Open your MD file above.
  2. Drag your .md file into the window, or click to choose it.
  3. View it directly in your browser.

Want to share a file instead of opening it?

With downloadlink you send large files for free and securely — the recipient can view them directly in the browser with the same viewer, without installing anything.
