I've been using this in beta since early march, if anyone has any specific questions I'm happy to field them.
Personal findings so far:
- Keyboard shortcuts are unparalleled compared to any other note taking app I've used (both desktop & web). Not needing to use a mouse to move around chunks of notes is highly productive.
- Safari seems to lose sync more often than Chrome.
- The design is really, really white. It took me a few days for it to stop hurting my eyes after tabbing to it from my IDE.
- ipsum2 11y agoWhat keyboard shortcuts does it have?
- nadc 11y agoFull list here (on OS X): http://i.imgur.com/pdbHhZx.jpg http://i.imgur.com/pdbHhZx.jpg Of particular note is the ability to move around lines of highlighted text using option + keyboard arrows. At first I thought it was just a neat feature, but now I pull my hair out every time I use a text editor without it.
- Artemis2 11y agoDoesn't OneNote have its fair share of keyboard shortcuts? https://support.office.com/article/65dc79fa-de36-4ca0-9a6e-dfe7f3452ff8 https://support.office.com/article/65dc79fa-de36-4ca0-9a6e-d...
- blumkvist 11y agoHere we like hip things. Why use onenote for notetaking and outlook for task management when there are a million cool new APPS and STARTUPS out there?
- nadc 11y agoQuite the list! To clarify on my parent comment - by unparalleled I mean in usefulness for writing notes, spec and lists of actionable items for teams. Not just sheer quantity of shortcuts.
- drey 11y agoDo you think Notes will make for a good task management application? Does it have to-do lists and commenting?
- nadc 11y agoYes. On our team of 5 devs we actually stopped using trello in favour of it. The ability to tersely create checkboxes by simply typing square brackets [ ] and a few other neat formatting tricks proved to be the path to least resistance for us when planning and organising sprints. We find we spend less time managing a project management system, less time creating lists of actionable items and more time to actually get stuff done. YMMV with bigger teams, though.
- geyang 11y agoI have been working on my own note taking app: Here is a list to my shortcuts and they are quite similar! http://lesquare.escherpad.com/@yang.ge/Welcome-To-Escherpad-Let's-get-started-4xk07ihgcyrg http://lesquare.escherpad.com/@yang.ge/Welcome-To-Escherpad-...
