About

MDEZ++ (mdez) is an open-source, lightweight, cross-platform C++20 and Qt GUI Markdown editor. Instead of a WYSIWYG editor, MDEZ++ renders a real-time live preview of your text in a split-screen pane using a fast, native, and minimal GUI. MDEZ++ can also edit any text-based file format, including HTML, plain text, and code files, making it highly versatile.
