Minidocs is a native Mac app that turns one Markdown source into finished PDFs, slide decks, and HTML.

Write in a clean editor. See the final document live. Export when it's ready. The preview and the export use the same render — what you see is what you ship.

Built for:

Writing papers, reports, and lecture notes in one source
Engineering RFCs, specs, and API docs with code and diagrams
Product PRDs, proposals, and decision docs
Slide decks that export to PDF from the same Markdown

What's in the box:

Live editor with paginated preview that matches the export
Export to PDF, slide deck, or HTML from the same Markdown
LaTeX math, Mermaid diagrams, syntax-highlighted code, tables, and images
Theme controls for fonts, spacing, page size, and color, per project
