#43Serious question: does anyone regularly use a Markdown notes app/site/extension? I've seen this kind of thing appear a few times a year and, while they are cool and I like Markdown, I find I stop using them rather quickly in favor of things like the macOS Notes app or Slack because of things like convenience, ease of sharing, better search, more ease of mind that my notes won't one day disappear because of a side eff…
And I think one of the reasons I like it is because it is simple..it also has decent support for embedded LaTex, and it handles code snippets well. It does the job well for what I use it for, which is normally lecture notes, TODO lists, and idea captures. I don't really use it for documentation or anything else more formal.

#44Look good. However, on mac I would really prefer using native apps for taking notes as they are fast and has a nice design like bear. Chrome can slow down easily and is unreliable at times.

#45I love this , and I wish I could use it, but I've moved to Firefox. You'd have an instant daily user right here if you released it in Firefox.
plibither8, would you mind adding instructions to load this into Firefox in your README as well as Chrome? Also please upload to addons.mozilla.org as well as the Chrome Store.
Nice work!

The db is just a file you can choose to sync however you want. I use Resilio[1] to keep work/laptop/desktop machines in sync.

#47> The code makes use of localStorage() to save the raw text and the time and date of when the edit has been made. Given that localStorage only has 5MiB available to it, you could try using the localForage library to have a localStorage-like API around IndexedDB, so that people can store even larger notes (you could even support storing pasted images as PNG blobs). Even better: is has automatic localForage fallback. A…
You realize that all of Pride and Prejudice is ~280KB, right? http://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/1342 :)
Well, then imagine I just suggested it for the image blobs ;)

I just tried and appears to work OK (Firefox 61.0.1, macOS)... since it's unsigned I loaded it as a temporary add-on in about:debugging plibither8, would you mind adding instructions to load this into Firefox in your README as well as Chrome? Also please upload to addons.mozilla.org as well as the Chrome Store. Nice work!
