## Description

The Markdown Editor app is your go-to tool for effortless creation and editing of markdown (.md) files. Designed primarily for mobile devices, it enables direct opening of .md files from your explorer for swift access. Style your content easily using intuitive options like bold, italics, headings, and seamless link insertion.

Beyond basic editing, the app supports previewing various image formats such as JPEG, PNG, GIF, WebP, BMP, and WBMP directly within the interface. Enjoy smooth navigation by opening links from the preview itself. Customize your workspace with Light and Dark Themes, and boost productivity using Dual View Mode to display both preview and editing panes simultaneously, or Single View Mode to focus on either.

Additional features include clearing text to start fresh, and creating new or editing existing markdown files. Developed with Flutter, this app fills the gap of standalone mobile markdown editors. The source code is openly available on GitHub, encouraging community collaboration and transparency.
