Final version of the Marked 3 beta submitted for review as public release. Working on getting the Paddle version out of Sandbox. Setapp version of 3.0 might be available before the other platforms, as that pipeline is already established. But on the verge of release!

Some stats I pulled together this morning

Over the course of 12 years of working on Marked, it has:

• JavaScript / TypeScript: 289,432 lines
• Objective‑C (.m only): 169,710 lines
• Swift (.swift): 3,904 lines

For a grand total of 463,046 lines of (active) code.

Plus 49,960 words of Marked documentation.

Add:

Doing: 16,461 lines of Ruby
Bunch: 18,399 of Objective‑C
SearchLink: 8,109 of Ruby

That's 506,015 lines of code in just 4 projects. I don't know if that's a lot or a little for a 47 year old…

Did you know you can point Marked 2 at your plan folder or a coding project root while using agentic coding, and any Markdown documents your agent creates will automatically display? When you open a folder in Marked, it automatically watches all files and always displays the most recently modified file.

Coming in Marked 3, Mermaid diagrams will have pan and zoom. It's a small thing, but if you work with diagrams of any significance, you'll appreciate it.

By the way, the CLI source is freely available. It only works with Marked 3 in its current form. https://github.com/ttscoff/mk

The CLI offers access to all of Marked 3’s url schemes, with some added flexibility and features over using `open` to launch them. Includes the ability to pipe input directly to Marked's Streaming Preview from the command line! (thanks to Neil Lippman for the push on that.)

If you want to try out all the new stuff, you can join the public beta at https://markedapp.com/join-the-beta. (2/2)

The beta is going great, and getting close to release. This morning I integrated the new `mk` command line utility into Marked 3. I also fixed the help system to search for deep links from the Help menu (which used to work but broke). (1/2)

I've been developing my own Markdown processor for Marked (and available as open source) called Apex, with the goal of replacing all of the processor choices in Marked with a single one that handles every syntax, including Kramdown IALs, Pandoc and MMD citations, Obsidian callouts, and tons more.
