Hiyd: Markdown Notes to GitHub
Hiyd: Markdown Notes to GitHub is a Apple app.
Description
Write a note. Publish to your Jekyll site. Done.
Hiyd is a fast, focused Markdown editor built for Jekyll and GitHub Pages bloggers. Capture an idea, add your front matter, and publish straight to your GitHub repo — without opening a laptop.
WHY HIYD
• Fast capture — open the app and start writing in Markdown immediately
• YAML front matter — set title, date, tags and layout per post, the way Jekyll expects
• Publish to GitHub — commit directly to your site's repo, right from your note
• Live preview — see rendered Markdown as you write
• Archive — keep a clean, searchable history of everything you've written
• iCloud sync — your notes follow you between Mac and iPhone
• Face ID / Touch ID lock — keep drafts private
• Siri Shortcuts & deep links — jump straight to a new note or your archive
Built with SwiftUI for a clean, accessible experience on both macOS and iOS.
SUPPORT HIYD
Hiyd is free to use. If it saves you time, you can leave a one-time tip or become an annual Supporter — entirely optional, and never required to use the app.
