If you will every need to locally render an MD file, e.g. reading some documentation, you can use the glow [1] program. It renders a MD file in the terminal.
In the case of GitHub repository, an alternative is to use the grid [2] project. It sets a local webserver using the GitHub markdown API. It produces a local view of MD files as they would be in the GitHub website.
