Notes

Markdown notes, in a vault you own.

In this section

  • Notes at a glance

    Notes is the third tab, beside Snippets and Clips. Press 3 .

  • Using a folder you already have

    This is the point of the feature.

  • Quick capture and daily notes

    The Notes tab of the Spotlight opens with an empty composer. Type as much as you like, then press Save .

  • The note list and the editor

    The middle column is the note list. Each row is a title, a line of the note, its collection and when it was last changed. Word count is available as a sort and in the editor's own footer, rather than on every row. How much of the body you see is up to you: Settings → Notes → Preview lines offers none, one or two. One is the default.

  • Editor settings

    Five switches in Settings → Notes change how the editor behaves. Each one applies straight away, in the note pane and in a note open in its own tab.

  • Tabs

    Notes open in tabs above the editor, the way a code editor does it.

  • Wikilinks and backlinks

    Type [[ in a note and start typing a title. Pick one and the link is inserted.

  • AI on a note

    The AI button in the editor toolbar can summarize, outline, continue, rewrite, or extract the tasks from a note. It runs on whichever provider you have set up in Settings → AI .

  • Markdown files from anywhere

    A Markdown file doesn't have to be in your notes folder to open in TypeFire. In Notes, choose New , then Open Markdown File , and pick any .md or .txt file on your computer. Or drag the file onto the TypeFire tab. It opens in its own tab with the full editor, and Save writes your changes back to that same file. Chrome asks once to allow saving.

  • Notes and snippets, both ways

    A note to a snippet : the ⚡ button in the note editor. The note stays where it is; a copy becomes a snippet, and you give it an abbreviation afterwards like any other.
