A desktop Markdown editor that strips away the complexity, so you can stay focused on reading and writing.
Good typography is invisible until you look for it. Then it is everywhere: in the measure, the leading, and the small pause before a new paragraph.
Switch views and the file stays the same. So do your cursor and scroll position.
The tools you need stay close.
Everything else steps aside, so nothing interrupts your reading or writing.
A lightweight, fast desktop editor.
Open a document and keep your thoughts moving—no setup required.
CommonMark and GFM. Tables, code, math, images, and footnotes.
Outline, search, focus mode, and PDF export.
Everything you need to write in Markdown. Nothing you don't.
Many editors rewrite the entire file every time you save. List markers change, line breaks move, and untouched lines appear in the diff.
mote writes only what you changed.
Works as-is with Git, iCloud Drive, Dropbox, and Syncthing.
mote is the quietest place to read and write.
Free during beta. From 1.0, $19.99 as a one-time purchase for up to three devices.
