A little warning in the README that it is going to send your file to GitHub might be prudent. I'm sure I'm not the only one who would be expecting it to be rendering the markdown locally.

The author clearly states that it is a super simple project but I didn't fully understand your comment until I viewed the Python script: https://github.com/calganaygun/MDcat/blob/31c9a4eb29c53d764b...

I kinda agree that they could improve the README to mention use of the GitHub API:

A super simple script which uses the GitHub API to convert your markdown files to GitHub styled HTML site.

Nice project!

Sorry, I am updating the description. You are right. I am also adding offline support. Thanks for recommendations.

Ick, my bad. My toplevel comment could - and should - have been far more constructive. The updated tagline in the repo is a big improvement, good work!
