I kept bouncing between two annoying extremes: “just edit markdown files in a folder” (great) and “use a notes app” (suddenly you’re managing accounts, syncing, databases, exports, and whatever the app feels like today).

So I built MarkdownManager: a small self-hosted tool that lets you browse and edit a folder of .md notes in your browser, with a preview right next to it. The important part: your notes stay as normal files on disk. No database, no vendor-shaped gravity well. If you stop using it, nothing breaks and your files are still just… files.

If you try it and hate something (UI flow, mobile layout, how it handles folders, whatever), I’m genuinely interested in the sharp feedback.
