FSNotes Portable is an open-source Markdown note-taking application. The application is maintained and supported by a thriving user and development community. The Apple App Store is the suggested distribution route; both the iOS and macOS versions are available for a small fee, even though FSNotes can be downloaded for free from GitHub.
