## Features Overview
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Native app (written in C++ with Qt).
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Turn your Markdown tasks into a beautiful Kanban board.
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Fast and beautiful.
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Fully open source and cross-platform (Linux, macOS, Windows).
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Completely private - tracks nothing.
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Folders and tags. Organize your ideas hierarchically using nested folders and universally using tags.
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Markdown Support. Format text without lifting your hands from the keyboard.
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Different themes. Switch between Light, Dark, and Sepia.
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Feed View. Select multiple notes to see them all one after another in the editor.
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Always runs in the background. Use the hotkey <kbd>Win</kbd>+<kbd>Shift</kbd>+<kbd>N</kbd> to summon Notes. <kbd>Ctrl</kbd>+<kbd>N</kbd> for macOS.
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Keyboard shortcuts. Meant to have the option to be used solely with a keyboard (but more work needs to be done on that).
|
|
|
|
|
