WHAT IS MAGZDOWN?
Magzdown is a privacy-first markdown reader that turns content into immersive, magazine-style reading. Eight typographic presets modeled on real magazine genres (from The New Yorker-style literary serif to news-weekly and fashion-glossy styles), 48 color themes, drop caps, decks, margin notes, and a scroll, two-column, or paginated layout. Highlight and annotate for free. Everything stays in your browser — no data leaves your device.

Magzdown is also available as an official Obsidian community plugin.
