What is Notable?
Notable is a desktop note-taking application that uses GitHub Flavored Markdown for writing and rendering notes. It solves the problem of vendor lock-in by storing notes as plain files on your disk, making them portable and editable with any text editor. The app includes features like a VS Code-based editor, dark theme, Zen mode, and batch note operations.
Users who prefer Markdown for note-taking, value data portability, and want to avoid proprietary formats or cloud lock-in. It's ideal for developers, writers, and students who sync notes via Git or cloud storage.
Notable stands out by combining a polished, feature-rich interface with complete data ownership—notes are stored as plain files, enabling seamless integration with external tools and workflows without export/import hassles.
