Key features

• Built for speed with rust.

• Close the app and take notes from anywhere.

• Markdown shortcuts make it easy to format the text while typing.

  To test that, start a new line and type # followed by a space to get a heading. Try #, ##, ###, ####, #####, ###### for different levels.

• You can also try > for blockquotes, *, - or + for bullet lists, or `foobar` to highlight code, ~~tildes~~ to strike text, or ==equal signs== to highlight text, (c) to see how it’s converted to a proper © character. You can also try ->, >>, 1/2, !=, or --, ** for bold and _Italic_ for italic.

• An inline toolbar is also available when you select text.

• To refresh the app press F5.
