marka.md v1.5.8

v1.5.8

v1.5.8 is a UI workflow polish release for file tabs, hidden files, preview navigation, and the first-run tutorial.

added

• Tab context menu: right-click open file tabs to use the same rename, copy path, reveal, open, and delete actions as the sidebar.
• Hidden dotfiles in the tree: dotfiles such as .env and .gitignore now appear in the folder sidebar.
• Selection sync: selecting matching text in the editor or preview now highlights the corresponding text on the other side.
• Heading anchors: rendered headings get GitHub-style IDs so in-document links can scroll to them.

improved

• The welcome tutorial buttons have stronger contrast, better wrapping, accessible progress dots, and reduced-motion support.
• Sidebar resizing, tree spacing, scrollbar styling, and empty folder layout are smoother.
• Release asset renaming now clears an existing clean DMG asset before renaming, which helps rerun release jobs without stale asset conflicts.

notes

• This release keeps the current v1.5 auto-update and signing setup unchanged.
• Selection sync is best-effort and works best with unique plain text selections.

marka.md v1.5.7

v1.5.7

v1.5.7 is a focused Windows bugfix release.

fixed

• Windows file associations: opening .md, .markdown, or .mdx files from Windows Explorer now loads the selected file when marka.md starts.

notes

• This reuses the existing pending-open-files flow, so the frontend behavior stays the same.
• macOS Finder open-with handling is unchanged.

marka.md v1.5.6

v1.5.6

v1.5.6 expands the sidebar into a real multi-folder workspace and makes marka.md more useful for mixed project folders.

added

• Multi-folder explorer: add more than one root folder and keep each root separated in the sidebar.
• Favorites: star files from the tree, pin them above the explorer, and reorder favorites by dragging.
• Open as text: unsupported-but-text files can be opened in the editor, with a per-extension choice remembered for the session.
• Local image preview: relative image links in markdown now resolve from the current file folder.

improved

• Closing the last sidebar root now clears the explorer instead of re-opening the previous folder.
• Markdown files restore split preview mode, while plain-text files switch to editor-only mode.
• The sidebar has a cleaner tree feel with lighter row states, root path labels, and better transparency coverage.

release workflow

• Manual release dispatch now builds the requested tag.
• Unsigned builds skip updater artifacts instead of injecting empty updater signing values.

marka.md v1.5.5

v1.5.5

v1.5.5 is a small workflow and navigation polish release.

added

• Copy Path / Copy Relative Path: sidebar context menus can copy absolute or root-relative paths.
• Reveal in File Manager: open a selected file or folder in Finder, Explorer, or the Linux file manager.
• Breadcrumb view controls: reading mode, titlebar visibility, and the theme menu now live beside the file actions.

improved

• Hidden-but-useful tool folders like .github, .vscode, .cursor, .claude, and .codex now show in the sidebar.
• Reading mode keeps its exit controls reachable even when the titlebar is hidden.
• README contributor guidance is shorter and clearer for first-time PRs.

security

• Updated the indirect Rust tar dependency from 0.4.45 to 0.4.46.

marka.md v1.5.2

v1.5.2

v1.5.2 is a polish release for opening files, themes, and rendered code blocks.

fixed

• macOS default-handler launches now open the file you double-clicked, not the previous document from session restore.
• rendered code blocks now wrap long lines in preview and PDF export.

improved

• added mono and mono dark themes for distraction-free black/white writing.
• grouped the theme menu into animated sections: neutral, catppuccin, ai, and crafted.
• added AI-inspired palettes for Claude, Codex, Gemini, and Cursor.

marka.md v1.5.1

v1.5.1

v1.5.1 is a small PDF/export patch.

Fixes

• Mermaid PDF export: Mermaid code fences now render as diagrams before the print/PDF flow opens. Fixes #36.
• Visible export action: export to PDF is now available in the top file-action row, beside copy markdown, new file, open file, and open folder. Refs #37.

Notes

• Cmd+P / Ctrl+P still works, but export is no longer shortcut-only.
• PDF export still uses the system browser print flow.

marka.md v1.5.0

v1.5.0

v1.5 is the context release.

Highlights

• Context tray: stage multiple markdown files from the sidebar, see file/token counts, and copy one AI-ready prompt bundle.
• Faster AI handoff: use the tray copy button or command palette to send staged notes to Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, or a local agent.
• What's new toast: after updating, marka.md now surfaces a release toast with a direct changelog link.
• PDF export polish: cleaner document margins and no browser-added date/time/path headers.

Notes

• Context bundles use relative paths so pasted prompts keep project structure without leaking local machine paths.
• The active staged file uses the current editor buffer, so unsaved edits are included when you copy context.
• PDF export still opens the system browser print flow; native silent PDF generation remains on the roadmap.
