leaf — a terminal Markdown previewer

Reading Markdown in the terminal still feels limited.

I built leaf to change that — a Markdown previewer with a more interactive, GUI-like experience, directly in the CLI.

What makes it different

  • navigate large files (TOC, sections)
  • open local Markdown links
  • mouse + keyboard support
  • LaTeX math rendering

Why not glow?

Tools like glow are great for simple rendering.

leaf focuses on interactivity and navigation, especially for real workflows.
