"Your notes are a folder Plain Markdown on your own disk — open it anywhere, back it up, walk away with it."

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!

What on Earth is a “greco-roman Markdown editor” and if I’m not someone who writes RETVRN posts on X, the everything app, why is that a desirable attribute?

I am a heavy Typora user and I really like it except when it starts to glitch with longer documents (> 5000 words). How is this different from Typora? To be clear, I think it is ok if it isn't, the world is big enough for multiple markdown editors :-)

Also, what does the term "greco-roman" have anything to do with Markdown editors?

The landing page feels very generic. I have seen this exact style on other vibe-coded pages, so you might want to spice it up a little.

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...

That landing page looks like it's straight out of Claude Code (The Serif font is almost a giveaway these days). The interface will not look native on any platform.

There's so many Markdown editors for all platforms, what made you join this crowded niche?

I don't immediately see a way to put an outline based on heading levels in the sidebar. For me, that's an absolute requirement, so I'll be sticking with Typora, at least for now...

Awesome job, this looks fantastic, and has all of the UX gaps I wish existed in Bear and Obsidian. However, my 2 biggest pain points with those could use addressing, and I would happily pay a high one-time price and upgrade fees over the years if they could be solved: 1. My corporate laptop is locked down, so no apple app store installations. Could this be made into a brew-installable app and licensed another way? 2. Related - every corporate laptop I've had for the last 10 years prohibits app store and icloud storage. So Bear notes (which I subscribed to) can't sync. Obsidian has a sync service, but I don't trust it (would prefer apple or dropbox), but unfortunately the plugin ecosystem is messy and difficult. There is no reliable community-supported plugin for syncing with dropbox on mobile. If you could make syncing with dropbox possible on desktop and mobile, that would be the ultimate gift to the community.

The ability to change font styles from the keyboarding using / is a nice touch, I wish Apple notes feature had that versus having to memorize a ton of keyboard shortcuts to change different styles.

hmmm … I so want to use this … but the webpage buries this

  Is it really free?
  Yes. The editor and local files stay free, with no account   
  required. Beauty Maximus is an optional subscription for 
  keeping a library current across Apple devices and for meeting
  notes that transcribe and summarize on device.

> I was frustrated with writing apps

Oh my hod… This absolutely AI generated intro.

This question is somewhat more general than this specific application, but how can an app guarantee that files will remain local, also in future updates of the app?

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!

Just tried it!

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

What does the "Open Folder" option do? For me it opens a system open dialog, but there is no button to select something. Can I point this at my Obsidian folder and call it a day? If not, is there an easy way to import it?

AI slop landing page == not downloading or caring. I would much rather a much simpler and more minimal landing page designed by you with some intention, even if it looks less "professional"

Hey, I quickly tried your editor and even when the writing experience is the most important thing, I have to admit it looks really lovely! I love the design and how it interacts. That is cool. Maybe you could add some more color options (not everyone likes the newish beige-toned interfaces). Cool that even flowcharts are supported. The only thing I miss in the block options would be a callout and the option to set a color for that callout. So far my first impressions :)

It looks really nice. I definitely will use it.

Many questions come to mind: - What is the revenue model? - What is your personal story? Why you do not explain it in the site?

Amazing project and execution. Makes my IDE's quickly-bolted-on (3 hours) .md support look ridiculous in comparison. Installed as PWA. Thank you!

Looks epic, id like to connect a Dropbox folder

the UI looks clean and slick. Nice work!

Website appears to be vibe coded, with some content overflowing off the screen on mobile with no ability scroll horizontally.

looks good

>Secure. Simple. Stoic.

You're writing a markdown editor, stop jerking yourself off, you're not Marc Aurelius.
