Notable
Notable is a program that allows users to create notes using Markdown.
Overview
Notable is an excellent program for taking notes using Markdown as a base.
The tool editor displays only the text with the Markdown formatting, to see the conversion it is necessary to click on the Edit
button to switch between the editing mode and the preview mode.
Notable is very simple, to use it you do not need to create accounts or synchronize files, let alone pay a fee.
On the one hand, the lack of features can be considered a problem, on the other hand, it can be considered a solution, as Notable works locally, your files will not be compromised on third party servers.
The Markdown processor used by the tool is the makdown-it.
You can read more about Notable on the official website at https://notable.app/.
