Lettera: A focused Markdown editor from the team behind Bear

A new writing app for Mac that works directly with Markdown files and folders.

Note: At the time of writing, Lettera is available as a public beta for macOS.

The team behind the popular note-taking app Bear has announced Lettera, a new standalone Markdown editor.

Lettera works directly with Markdown files and folders stored in iCloud or on your Mac.

This keeps your documents organized within your folder structure and can be opened with other compatible apps.

The app supports document outlines, tables, code blocks, and image support, along with export options, all while maintaining a clean and distraction-free interface.

What makes Lettera appealing is its focused approach.

It is designed specifically for writing and editing Markdown files rather than trying to become an all-in-one productivity app.

There is no shortage of Markdown editors today, but Lettera comes from a team with a proven track record.

Built around the same editor that powers Bear, we can be confident that Lettera benefits from years of refinement and attention to detail.
