This Thing is creat. cons I find: - Hmm, no shortcuts? or keyboard support in general. Press arrow down to highlight a search result fails - bounding box for a note not needed (see onenote) - Search the content of a note not possible? - Too much chrome while note writing? These are simple things to fix. Great project!

Thanks! There are some keyboard shortcuts (there's a page in the help notepad on them) but I would like to add more. Not too sure what you mean on the bounding box thing, like the little border around elements? If you want to dismiss the sidebar just click the little ">>" or press "f". Hiding the breadcrumbs in the focus mode is on my todo list. Thanks for the list, I genuinely appreciate it.

  Yeah, I mean the rectagle with shadow. Not needed. It also feels wrong that is 'modal', you are editing or moving. I'd rather click and start writing. having to do another click for note type, when 90% of the time it's text, feels like a deal breaker.

    Ah, yeah. I'll have a look into that. I really like the instant-text suggestion. I might be able to make it so when you have the "insert" menu open it'll automatically insert a markdown element if you just start typing. I'm a little busy with uni right now so I'm not sure how quickly I can get through anything, although I am open to pull requests.

      Awesome. Thanks. Some for of versioning and visual diff would totally kill any other app.

  If I could do every single action without a mouse, it'd be fantastic. Navigate around notes with arrow keys. I think you took the 'webapp' UX model a bit too far (where everything must be click, animation, multiple choice. Not even right click). Few modern web apps do these things well. One is checkvist. Your target user likes the keyboard (coders, writers). Listen to them (us)

  Agree about the bounding box, best seen when editing, rest of the time just a distraction. I've been chasing a onenote alternative for some time, this looks promising. I have to add, I loved the old Onenote heirachy, notebooks down the left (rotated labels), sections across the top, pages down the right. And more screen shots always help for those too lazy to trial. And add some default notebook/section/note naming, so people can just click and start adding notes. Great work

    Thanks, the reason I made this was because of how big of a fan I was of OneNote, but all the little things that I wanted to change (and first-class linux support) drove me to write this.
