Marked QL is a lightweight macOS Quick Look extension that renders formatted Markdown files instantly within Finder. Powered by the Apex processor, it transforms raw text documents into styled HTML previews featuring math equations, Mermaid diagrams, and code syntax highlighting. The app operates independently while serving as an efficient companion tool to the full Marked 3 application.
Marked QL was created by independent developer and long-time Mac utility author Brett Terpstra to solve the limitations of default macOS text handling. Responding to years of user requests for native Markdown Quick Look capabilities, the developer built a fast, dedicated preview extension powered by the modern Apex parsing engine.
