Read your .md files rendered right in the Unity inspector: headings, lists, code, links, and tables. No setup, no dependencies, and the raw source is always one click away.Markdown is everywhere in a modern Unity project. READMEs, design docs, build notes, changelogs, API documentation, and the steady stream of specs and summaries that AI assistants now generate as .md files. But inside Unity, a Markdown file is just a TextAsset. The inspector shows raw text: literal hash symbols, double asterisks, pipe tables, and backtick fences, all unrendered. So you leave Unity, open the file somewhere else, read it, and tab back. For one of the most common document formats in your project.Markdown Viewer fixes that. Select any .md file in the Project window and the inspector shows it rendered immediately, with real formatting: sized headings, indented lists, monospace code blocks, clickable links, styled quotes, and tables laid out as readable grids. No window to open, no menu to find, no configuration. The moment you select the file, it is just readable.It is built for anyone who keeps documentation and notes inside their project: solo developers reviewing their own design docs, teams storing specs and onboarding docs next to the code, and especially anyone reviewing AI generated Markdown, where the file exists to be read and you want it formatted the instant it lands.Reading comfort is the point. Generous spacing, a comfortable line width, and a clear hierarchy between headings and body make a document pleasant to read for more than a few seconds. It reads the active editor skin, so it looks right in both light and dark themes. And the literal source is always one click away, for when you need to copy exact text or check formatting.Reading while the inspector is busy with something else? Open the standalone Markdown Viewer window from the Tools menu, then drag in a file, pick one from disk, or follow your selection. Building your own editor tools? The same renderer is embeddable, so you can draw formatted Markdown in your own windows and inspectors with a single call.It works with any text. Plain text and unusual or partial Markdown degrade to clean, readable text rather than breaking, so it is safe to leave on for every .md file, including messy AI output. It never shows an error, never blanks out, and never logs noise to the console.What this does not do: it is a viewer, not an editor or a diff tool. It does not render embedded images (image references show as clear placeholders) and does not syntax highlight inside code blocks in this version. It adds no runtime or build footprint and ships with zero dependencies.Automatic inspector rendering: Select a .md file and it shows up formatted instantly, drawn right where you already click.Rendered or source, one click: Switch to the literal Markdown any time to read or copy exact text. The choice is remembered per project.Standalone reader window: Open files from the Tools menu, drag them in, pick from disk, or follow your selection, without adding a second inspector.Faithful formatting: Headings, bold, italic, inline code, code blocks, ordered and nested lists, blockquotes, rules, clickable links, and pipe tables.Native in both skins: Reads the active editor theme, so it looks right and comfortable in light and dark.Embeddable renderer: Draw Markdown in your own editor windows and inspectors with a single call.Graceful with anything: Plain or malformed text renders as readable text, with no errors and no console noise.Zero dependencies, editor only: No third party libraries and no runtime or build footprint.
