Ask HN: Is there a service for uploading Markdown files that render beautifully?

I currently have an `,upload-gist` binary to upload files as GitHub gist but that isn't very beautiful. I also have my own website but there I haven't built the infrastructure to upload files easily.

I'm searching for a place that: - uploads/hosts my Markdown files - provide a permanent URL - is beautiful & minimalistic

Yes. I want to publish a single page. I know you can use Obsidian to publish a folder. Can I upload a single file and not see the sidebar?

I am really not sure. Maybe you can ask support?

There is also https://telegra.ph and https://hackmd.io/
