Getting Started
Start using MdWrk with browser, PWA, local setup, configuration, and standalone package guidance.
Start with the MdWrk setup paths that get the workspace running in a browser, as an installable PWA, from a local checkout, or through standalone packages.
- Choose the setup path that matches how you want to use MdWrk.
- Open the matching Getting Started article.
- Follow the article into configuration, local setup, PWA installation, or package use.
Choose a setup path
- Client Installation: Use the browser route for immediate access, the PWA route for an installable shell, local setup for development control, or standalone modules for package-level adoption.
- Browser Use: The browser path runs the MdWrk client directly in a supported browser, keeps documents local by default, and remains usable offline after app assets are cached.
- PWA Installation: The Progressive Web App path keeps the MdWrk client in the web platform, but lets supported browsers install it as a dedicated app window.
- Local Setup: This path is for maintainers, internal adopters, and self-hosting operators who want more control than the browser or PWA flows provide.
- Standalone Modules: MdWrk standalone modules expose the editor, renderer, extension contracts, theme tokens, and installable extension packages as reusable package surfaces.
- Client Configuration: Theme Selection Open Settings -> Theme to switch between built-in theme families. Themes are contract-backed and flow through the editor, preview, export, and extension theme APIs.
What to read next
After setup, continue into product docs for local-first workflow, editor and preview behavior, extension host boundaries, and theme packages.
