Review Summary
Markdown Reader is praised for its lightweight, fast performance and beautiful, clean rendering of markdown documents, supporting local files, URLs, and embedded HTML with CSS styling. Users appreciate its configurability and responsive maintainer support. However, common issues include failure to recognize uppercase file extensions, non-working code line wrap feature, and cases where server-hosted markdown files download rather than render. Some users find the default max-width limit restrictive.
