Showglass — Quick Look previewer for Mac. Press Space on a YAML config, a SQLite database, or a ZIP and see what's inside, right in Finder. It covers 83 file types across 13 families, with no window to open and no file to unpack. Your files stay on your Mac, and previews run with no network access.

  • Peek inside a ZIP without unpacking it

  • Fold JSON and XML into readable trees

  • Read Markdown like a real document

  • Turn 3D models around in Quick Look

Showglass features


Code and docs

Syntax highlighting, line numbers, and an outline of every function. Markdown looks like a real document, with tables, task lists, and a table of contents.


Data, laid out

Fold JSON, XML, and property lists as trees. Read TSV and JSON Lines as tables with a summary of every column. Open SQLite and Parquet files with their schemas, and Jupyter notebooks with their cells.


Archives, without unpacking

Look inside ZIP, TAR, gzip, xz, 7-Zip, RAR, JAR, IPA, and APK files. You get a file tree with sizes, and nothing gets extracted. EPUB books show their cover and contents, and comics show a page strip.


Fonts and 3D

See specimens with the glyph grid, metrics, variable axes, and language coverage. Turn glTF, GLB, FBX, and 3MF models around, with real dimensions and materials.


Developer files, too

String Catalogs, entitlements, logs, crash reports, diffs, HAR files, and model weights all get a proper view. So do subtitles, GPX routes, folders, and app bundles.


Finder thumbnails

Archives, config files, stylesheets, subtitles, and data show what's inside, so you can tell files apart before you open them.
