Built for the files Finder skips

See the useful part first.

Every preview is designed around the question you ask before opening a file: what is this, and is it the one I need?

Documents that feel finished

Markdown, MDX, notebooks, Quarto, RMarkdown, RST, AsciiDoc, TeX, and more render with real hierarchy instead of a raw-text wall.

MDMDXIPYNBRSTTEX

Code you can actually scan

Source, config, diffs, logs, SQL, GraphQL, and key files get syntax color, useful spacing, and a calm reading surface.

SWIFTTSPYYAMLDIFF

Data without opening the toolchain

Inspect tables, schemas, metadata, and archive contents across CSV, JSON, SQLite, Parquet, Arrow, ZIP, and related formats.
