About
A terminal-based Markdown previewer and docs linter that renders READMEs, changelogs, and release notes as a styled TUI with themes, search, and inline image/Mermaid support. It also includes a --check mode that flags common docs issues like broken links, missing alt text, and malformed heading structure before publishing.
What it can do
Render Markdown files (READMEs, changelogs, release notes) as a styled terminal UI
Markdown file → Styled TUI preview
Search within rendered documentation
Search query → Matched text locations
Display inline images and Mermaid diagrams within Markdown preview
Markdown file with images/Mermaid code → Rendered images/diagrams in TUI
Check documentation for issues like broken links, missing alt text, and malformed heading structure
Markdown file → List of docs issues
Why it made the leaderboard
Reviewing Markdown docs usually means leaving the terminal for a browser preview; Shine keeps that loop inside the shell with a real interactive TUI, useful for anyone maintaining READMEs and changelogs in a CLI-first workflow.
