|
MdView is a tool for viewing [GitHub Flavored Markdown](https://github.github.com/gfm/) files in your web browser.
|
|
|
|
|
MdView recursively renders the parent directory of the user-provided file and serves its contents over HTTP on port
|
|
|
|
|
8080. The default browser is then launched, displaying the Markdown file as an HTML document.
