Quick Look for Developers

Getting Started

After installing Hitspace, you need to enable the Quick Look extension:

  1. macOS:Open System Settings → Login Items & Extensions. Enable Quick Look and Sharing for Hitspace.
  2. iOS: The extension is enabled automatically. Open the Files app, find any .md, .json, or .swift file, and tap it.

Supported File Types

  • Markdown — .md, .markdown
  • JSON — .json, .geojson
  • YAML — .yml, .yaml
  • Code — .swift, .py, .js, .ts, .kt, .rs, .go, .rb, .sh, .css, .sql, .c, .cpp, .java, .xml, .html, .php, .r, .pl, .diff, and more
  • Apple configs — .plist, .pbxproj

Troubleshooting

Quick Look doesn't show formatted preview

  • Make sure the extension is enabled in System Settings → Login Items & Extensions
  • Try restarting Finder (Option-right-click Finder in Dock → Relaunch)
  • If previews were working but stopped, try quitting and reopening the app

Preview shows blank/black screen (macOS)

  • This can happen if the extension needs to be re-registered. Quit the app, relaunch it, and try again.
