MarkdownAccess is a Markdown editor for Windows designed for screen reader users. You write in a native text field that NVDA reads correctly, with spoken formatting feedback and a built-in HTML preview.
Features

- Assisted formatting with spoken announcements: bold (Ctrl+B), italic (Ctrl+I), headings (Ctrl+1/2/3), code, strikethrough, lists, quote, link (Ctrl+K), table and task items.
- Built-in HTML preview (WebView, Edge/WebView2 backend), toggled with F6, falling back to your default browser.
- Structure navigation: jump to the next or previous heading (Alt+Down/Up) and view the document outline (Ctrl+Shift+O).
