NGO/viewer

Simple Markdown Viewer

A tiny Node.js app that serves all markdown (.md) files in the workspace with a two‑pane UI:

• Left pane – a collapsible directory tree.
• Right pane – the selected markdown rendered to HTML.

Features

• Auto‑detects directories and markdown files.
• Click a folder to expand/collapse.
• Click a file to view it instantly.
• Runs on port 8100 (http://localhost:8100).
• No build step – just npm install and npm start.

Install & Run

cd /viewer
npm install   # installs express & markdown-it
npm start

Open your browser at http://localhost:8100.

The server serves the whole workspace (the parent of the viewer folder) as the markdown root, so you can browse any .md file, e.g. Projects/POS/ICP.md.

Files

• server.js – Express backend with two APIs (/api/tree and /api/md).
• public/ – static HTML/CSS/JS for the UI.
• package.json – npm metadata.

Enjoy!
