Markdown is a way to style text on the web. You control the display of the document; formatting words as bold or italic, adding images, and creating lists are just a few of the things we can do with Markdown. Mostly, Markdown is just regular text with a few non-alphabetic characters thrown in, like # or. Markdown Here will help you to write email more quickly and powerfully than you thought possible. With no extra effort on your part, Markdown Here eliminates all the hassle of formatting email. Empowerment through simplicity. Get it for Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and Thunderbird.

To be brief .md file stands for 'MarkDown' and it is a markup language. More info is available on Wikipedia
I recently began to use .md file as a Readme file in my torrents. Though I can use .txt but .md is more consistent and reliable for me, since it is a markup language. (Previously I was using .jpeg files)
Hope you have latest version of firefox or chrome installed. This method will work on all OS with Chrome or Firefox installed. (Personally, I checked on Windows with Chrome and Firefox installed)
Viewing on Firefox:
Just install a add-on named 'Markdown Viewer' or Click here
*Restart Firefox
*Open New tab
*Drag .md file anywhere (Don't drag outside of firefox )

Viewing on Chrome:

In Chrome webstore search for add-on named 'Markdown Viewer' or Click here
*Install it
*Go to extensions page and Check 'Allow access to file urls' (This will allow this addon to render .md files which are saved locally)
*Open New tab
*Drag .md file anywhere (Don't drag outside of Chrome , I know you didn't laugh this time)
Done

In the past you installed a Markdown Viewer plugin on Firefox and was able to open .md files that are of the type Markdown. But after the 57 version of Firefox, this is no longer possible, every time you try to open a file with Ctrl + o this box appears with this information:

Markdown Here Firefox

That is, the browser asks if you want to open with a text editor or download the file that is already on your machine.

If you just install plugins it will not solve, you need to follow the following steps:

Notice that it shows a file for mime-types that must be saved on your computer, exactly in the informed path: ~/.mime.types. It is even possible to edit the path by the browser itself by clicking on the edit icon, but we will take this path and file name as default, even because it is standard! ☺

Let’s create the file:

And inside it we will insert the following content:

Markdown firefox browser

As a result we inform you what types of files we want Firefox to open directly in the browser, if you want more files feel free to inform. I know that txt already opens by default, but there will be no problem re-formatting.

But notice that the Markdown is not rendered but the code is displayed as a text file. In the next step we will change that!

You can still customize the CSS to make it the way you want, centralized, for example as I did and is in the image, by going to:

Firefox

☰ → Extensions → … (from plugin) → Preferences → Preferences (from plugin)

And below the field to insert your CSS, in my case I inserted: body {max-width: 1000px; margin: auto; } as in the image below:

Easy, right ?! ☺
