my own markdown editor - native, WYSIWYG, free

Hi everyone,

I made my own markdown editor. It's called wander, native on Mac, also works on iPhone and iPad.

App Store link. Website is here.

Problem:

Markdown editors make you choose: either a nice editing experience with your notes locked in a database (Apple Notes), or plain files on disk but raw markup and preview panes (Obsidian, iA Writer). I wanted Apple Notes editing feel on top of plain markdown files I fully control. So:

\- WYSIWYG editing: tables, images, checklists are real editable blocks, not preview

\- your notes stay plain markdown files in folders you control, no account, no cloud required

\- mostly compatible with Obsidian vaults (wikilinks, callouts, tags, frontmatter, theme support coming soon)

\- byte-faithful saves: if you keep notes in git, opening and saving a file with no edits produces zero diff. Nobody else does this

\- version history built in: every save is kept locally, timeline per note or whole vault, see what changed, restore or name any version. No git knowledge needed, no server. If your vault is already a git repo, your real commits show in the timeline too

\- also: ⌘K search, backlinks, comments on selected text, Finder tags, a wander terminal command, one-click default app for .md

Comparison:

\- vs Obsidian: native instead of Electron, true WYSIWYG instead of live-preview (no markup flickering as the cursor moves). Opens your existing vault as-is

\- vs Apple Notes: same editing feel, but real files on disk instead of a database, no lock-in

\- vs iA Writer / Typora: tables and images are editable blocks, plus version history and an iPhone app

Pricing:

Completely free. No subscription, no in-app purchases, no account. If paid stuff ever comes it will be optional cloud services, the editor stays free.

Still early. Next up: computational notes (variables, sheets, charts) and optional built-in cloud sync.
