TigerMarkView is now available on WinGet

I have published a new version of TigerMarkView, my lightweight Markdown viewer for Windows.

TigerMarkView started as a tool I wanted for myself: something fast and predictable for reading and reviewing Markdown files without opening a full editor or browser-based workflow.

It is deliberately a viewer, not an editor. When a document needs changes, TigerMarkView opens it in the editor you already use and watches the file for updates.

What it does

TigerMarkView includes:

clean Markdown rendering;
light and dark themes;
local document navigation and recent-file history;
automatic, confirmed, or manual reload when a file changes;
syntax highlighting and optional emoji shortcodes;
configurable PDF export;
a tiger-mark command-line tool for Markdown-to-PDF conversion;
support for multiple windows sharing settings and recent files;
Open With integration for .md and .markdown.

The application is built for local Markdown files and does not require an account or cloud service.

Install with WinGet

TigerMarkView 0.12.1 is now available in the WinGet community repository:

winget install ItTiger.TigerMarkView

To upgrade later:

winget upgrade ItTiger.TigerMarkView

To uninstall:

winget uninstall ItTiger.TigerMarkView

The same installer is also available from GitHub Releases.

A few privacy and security details

Markdown is treated as untrusted content.

TigerMarkView keeps formatting HTML, but removes scripts and other active content.

Remote web images are allowed by default because that is useful for normal Markdown documents, but they can be disabled under:

View > Rendering > Load Remote Images

The setting applies immediately to all open TigerMarkView windows.

TigerMarkView itself has no telemetry and does not upload your documents.

Why I built it

There are already many Markdown applications, and TigerMarkView is not trying to replace them all.

It is meant to be a small, focused desktop utility for people who often need to read, review, navigate, or export Markdown and prefer to keep editing in their existing editor.

That is exactly how I use it myself.

TigerMarkView is open source and still pre-1.0, so feedback is especially useful.

If you try it, I would be very interested to hear what works well — and what does not.
