Clearance is a Markdown viewer and editor written in Swift for macOS. It opens .md and .txt files, keeps a list of recent files, and handles documents that start with a YAML frontmatter block, which is common in static site generators and note collections.
Builds are downloaded from GitHub Releases as a .dmg or .zip. The repository is set up as a monorepo, with plans for shared Tauri versions on Windows, Linux and Android, but only the macOS app ships today.
