SoloMD
✦ Ours FreeA free, open-source Markdown editor — one file, one window, just write
A lightweight, distraction-free cross-platform Markdown editor with live preview, wiki links, local semantic search, AutoGit versioning, plus built-in MCP and CLI. Offline-first, zero telemetry, free forever.
Why we picked it
SoloMD is the Markdown editor we use every day, and the most direct expression of what "free software" means to us. It's free, MIT-licensed, sends no telemetry by default, and keeps every note on your own machine — across desktop and mobile (Windows / macOS / Linux / iOS / Android).
It's more than an editor: local semantic search lets you query your own library, AutoGit keeps versions for you, and a bundled CLI and MCP server let AI tools like Claude drive it directly. Want AI inside? Bring your own key for many providers — your money and your data stay yours.
