MarkFlow Pro Demo


Why MarkFlow Pro?

Every other Markdown preview extension has the same problem: the preview panel gets stuck on the wrong file, dies when you close it manually, or conflicts with Copilot and Prettier.

MarkFlow Pro fixes all of that — for free. Then adds the Pro features VS Code users have been requesting for years.


Free Features

  • ✅ Auto-open preview when you open any .md file
  • ✅ Preview follows your active file — across all editor groups and split panes
  • ✅ Re-opens automatically after you manually close it
  • ✅ Smart auto-close (optional) — closes preview when you leave markdown
  • ✅ Layout modes — side-by-side, below, or tab
  • ✅ Zero conflicts — Copilot Tab and Prettier work perfectly
