  2. A second brain, for you, forever. Obsidian is a powerful knowledge base that works on top of a local folder of plain text Markdown files.
    It's not marketed as a markdown-to-pdf tool, but I've found that Obsidian (https://obsidian.md) does an excellent job. Just create a new "vault", paste your markdown into a new note, and export to PDF.

    Marked takes Markdown text–a simple syntax you can learn in minutes–and turns it into beautiful...
    I’ve not used it for very large documents, but I’ve been very happy with the fidelity of conversion using Marked 2 (https://marked2app.com) I believe it’s Mac only. I use it sometimes when I’m creating PDFs from my personal documentation to share more publicly, which I keep in Markdown and deploy on Gitlab Pages as a static site.
