WenXuan MD Editor is a free Windows desktop Markdown editor. It supports rendering of math formulas (LaTeX), code highlighting, tables, images, and more, and can export to Word, PDF, HTML, and MediaWiki formats with one click. Formulas exported to Word remain directly editable, exported code appears as color syntax-highlighted code blocks, and exported tables keep the same format as the AI model’s output. The software was originally written for personal use; later many colleagues liked it, so it was shared with everyone.
