nicejames21 downloadsOpen Markdown files in Typora from the file context menu or command palette on macOS.
- Overview
- Scorecard
- Updates1
Open a Markdown file in Typora directly from Obsidian's file context menu or command palette.
macOS only. Requires Obsidian 1.13.7 or newer and an installed copy of Typora.
Usage
- Right-click a
.mdfile and choose Typora로 보기 (Open in Typora). - Alternatively, run Open in Typora: 현재 Markdown 파일을 Typora로 보기 from the command palette.
- Folders and files with other extensions do not receive the menu item.
The current menu and command labels are in Korean. The plugin opens the original file; edits saved in Typora are reflected in Obsidian. Obsidian-specific features such as wikilinks, embeds, and plugin syntax may render differently in Typora.
Installation

Privacy and permissions
The plugin does not make network requests, collect telemetry, or modify notes. It invokes macOS /usr/bin/open -a Typora with the absolute file path as a separate argument. It requires a local filesystem vault. Windows, Linux, and mobile platforms are not supported.
Development and validation
There are no external packages or build steps. The root main.js is both the source and release artifact.
node --check main.js
node --test main.test.cjs
Tests cover Markdown-only menus, uppercase extensions, argument handling for Korean filenames and shell metacharacters, command availability, launch errors, and unsupported platforms/adapters. The plugin has also been tested in Obsidian 1.13.7 on macOS by opening a Markdown file from the context menu in Typora.
