Maybe I misunderstand, but the Notes folder isn't really usable from another app as is. There are no folders and all the md files have machine generated names. It appears you can export the data to get the actual structure, but that, of course, requires the app.
Something like Obsidian (or Typora mentioned below) can just be pointed at a folder and use it as is. Makes using multiple editors simple. Here, for example, there doesn't seem to be a way to use this data on linux.
Do I understand all of this correctly?
Thank you!
Also, what does the term "greco-roman" have anything to do with Markdown editors?
Not ideal, I know, but maybe it gives you a great typing UX at least
To put it simply, an automatic update of the app might start uploading the notes to a server. I don't think there is any security boundary in iOS, Android, or any other platform preventing this, right?
Other than that, congratulations on what seems to be a nice app!
Oh my hod… This absolutely AI generated intro.
Maybe I spent so much time using AI that I started to write like them?
> and like most I used Apple Notes.
Most people i know that write more then just some notes use obsidian, zettlr, … or one of many other markdown editors.
A comparison with existing apps would be nice.
Wasn't that the whole point of Markdown?
However, regarding the editor, I really like it at first glance. I wonder if it is possible to register a PWA as the default app for .md files with KDE...
But the landing page is not only obviously ai-generated but also hilariously long. (Like 3 times as long as VS Code’s.)
Maybe I’m wrong on this but does a fancy landing page even have any value in this day and age? Not like it signifies effort anymore…
If I try to paste some text (this happens to be json), I get: Paste could not be applied here — nothing was changed.
It seems I can paste regular text, but trying to paste:
{ "mcpServers": { "beauty": { "args": [ "/Applications/Beauty.app/Contents/Resources/mcp/server.cjs", "--endpoint", "/Users/dant/Library/Containers/com.markdown.editor/Data/Library/Application Support/com.markdown.editor/mcp/endpoint.json", "--allow-writes" ], "command": "node" } } }
doesn't work. (This is the generated mcp config from the app itself, I wanted to see what it generated, and tried to paste it into the app. :) )
This does not paste:
"/Applications/Beauty.app/Contents/Resources/mcp/server.cjs"
While this does:
"/Applications/Beauty.app/Contents/Resources/mcp/server.cjs
Something looking for matching quotes?
Hell yeah, someone finally got notes right. I don’t say this lightly, but notes are supposed to be simple, fast and easily retrieved.
Apple Notes doesn’t give us nearly enough. Notion gives way too much. Obsidian is a mess. Craft, AnyType, etc are janky, gimmicky or slow.
You managed to make something simple, local, that gives us exactly the features we need for writing and finding notes and also MCP so I can point my agent to it?! I’d give you a fcking nobel prize for this lol
(That’s how I use zettlr, but with nextcloud instead of Dropbox.)
Many questions come to mind: - What is the revenue model? - What is your personal story? Why you do not explain it in the site?
Without the constraints of a usual project, I feel I'll actually work on it for a much longer time.
I didn't add any story or personal background because I didn't think anyone would care, but good idea! In the meantime, you can follow along on x: @thiago_peres
You're writing a markdown editor, stop jerking yourself off, you're not Marc Aurelius.
