Glow is a CLI tool that renders Markdown documents with formatting in the terminal. It is written in Go and built on Charm's terminal UI libraries; it reads Markdown from local files or URLs and prints headings, code blocks, tables, and so on with colors and styles applied. Its pager mode lets you scroll through long documents, so it is used to check READMEs without a browser.

Render markdown on the CLI, with pizzazz! 💅🏻
