Mark It Down — Markdown E

Mark It Down — Your browser, a writing desk.
Instant Markdown editor. Just open a tab.
100% local. No account needed.

Take in AI answers, web articles, rough notes. Rewrite in your own words. Send the finished note out.

Entry:
Web Clipper — preview before saving. Right-click any page or AI conversation to clip as Markdown. Opens in the Side Panel, ready to edit
New Tab — open a tab and you're already writing. Type `mid` in the address bar and press Space to search notes by title and open any note instantly.

Edit:
Slash commands and floating toolbar. Rich documents without knowing Markdown
Diagrams, math, tables, code — all rendered
Insert Mermaid diagrams from the Command Palette — with live preview
Command Palette opens dedicated modals for tables, badges, and footnotes
Find & Replace — across one note or all your notes at once
Note Log — log why you changed something, right inside the note. Creation, Update, Deprecation, or your own verb. Press Alt+L or click the History icon. The log travels with the note into OKF exports and Git commits
Link graph in the right panel — see which notes link here and which this note links to. Node labels appear below each node so nothing overlaps. Select a node to highlight it in amber. Reset view returns the graph to a full-fit view. Click a node to jump. Zoom in and out with the [+][−] buttons
Hover or right-click a note in the sidebar to pin the detail panel and read without switching away
Raw Markdown preview — toggle between rendered view and plain Markdown to check syntax
Focus Mode, 4 themes, keyboard-first

Move:
Tap Alt once for the quick-action modal — move folders, open Git, create a note. All from the keyboard
Designated folders so nothing piles up: Inbox / Template / Archive / Trash

Exit:
Export button — PDF, DOCX, HTML, PNG, Markdown, and more
One note or many — export all at once
Markdown converts to any flavor. Portability Hub — match the syntax of your publishing platform
Copy as Rich Text (Ctrl+Shift+C) — paste with formatting into documents and email
Semantic output across all surfaces — figure/figcaption for captioned images and scope-attributed table headers apply everywhere: exported HTML, OKF viewer, in-app preview, and EPUB. Article and nav landmarks appear in HTML and OKF exports; the OKF viewer adds time, main, and section landmarks. Your Markdown source is never modified
EPUB exports include chapter sections, a landmarks navigation block, and EPUB Accessibility 1.1 metadata — screen readers and e-readers can jump between chapters
OKF Export — package your notes as an Open Knowledge Format v0.1 bundle. Each note becomes a Markdown concept file with YAML frontmatter (type, title, description, timestamp). External links are automatically collected and appended as a numbered References list so sources are never lost after export. Links between notes in your bundle are converted to the correct relative paths so connections stay intact. User-defined fields such as citations are preserved as-is. A browser-readable index.html is included — no server required. Note Log entries become log.md. Import reverses the process: links are restored as wikilinks, foreign paths are preserved for lossless re-export. MID is the curation layer, not an enrichment agent — the words in every concept are yours, not AI-generated

Git:
Your repository, your history. What leaves is an intentional commit. Saved locally, automatically.
Commit message editor supports Conventional Commits prefix chips and lets you attach Note Log entries directly to the commit body
Git sync preserves OKF bundle structure when your repository is already OKF-formatted

No tracking. No login. No server. No AI enrichment. No lock-in. Just your intent and your words.

v2.2.8 — More of what you wrote stays with what you wrote.

Note Log lets you record why a note changed — Creation, Update, Deprecation, or any verb you choose — right inside the note. Alt+L opens the log; the entries flow into OKF exports and Git commits automatically.

The right panel now shows a link graph: which notes point here, which this note points to. Click a node to jump. [+][−] buttons zoom the graph. The same zoom controls appear in OKF bundle exports.

The right panel can also show raw Markdown. Toggle between the rendered view and the source to check syntax without opening the editor.

OKF bundles can now be imported from the Entry menu with links restored as wikilinks. Exports include a browser-readable index.html — open the bundle in any browser without extra tools. Git sync keeps the same OKF structure. Note Log entries populate log.md automatically when you export.

Semantic markup now applies across all output surfaces. Figure/figcaption for captioned images and scope-attributed table headers come from the shared renderer — they apply to HTML exports, OKF viewer, the in-app preview, and EPUB. Article and nav landmarks appear in HTML and OKF exports; the OKF viewer adds time, main, and section landmarks on top. Your Markdown source is not modified — semantic structure is added only in rendered output.

EPUB exports now include chapter sections and a landmarks navigation block. Screen readers and e-readers can jump between chapters.

v2.2.9 — OKF bundles carry their references forward, and the knowledge graph becomes easier to explore.

When you export a note as an OKF bundle, any external links in your text are now automatically collected and appended as a numbered References list at the end of the file. Sources that lived inside your prose no longer disappear when you hand off the package.

Links between your own notes in the bundle now resolve correctly after export. If one concept file pointed to another, those connections stay intact inside the bundle — they no longer break when you move the files out of the editor.

The link graph is easier to read and navigate. Node labels appear below each node so they no longer stack on top of each other. Selecting a node or edge highlights it in amber. A Reset view button is always visible and returns the graph to a full overview. All four color themes now carry through into the graph correctly. If your graph has only one note or none at all, a short guide explains how to create connections using the `[[note name]]` syntax.

The OKF export panel now explains how the type field is assigned automatically based on which folder a note lives in. The Portability Hub flags notes that have no type set so you can review them before export. A new tip in the rotation surfaces this for users who have not yet opened the export menu.

The Portability Hub now also flags notes where heading levels jump unexpectedly — for example, a level 4 heading appearing directly inside a level 2 with no level 3 in between. The note itself is not changed; the warning is there to help you catch structural problems before you export to EPUB or document converters.

When you edit the confidence or source fields in a note's metadata panel, the editor now offers a short list of standard values to choose from. You can still type anything you like — the suggestions are there to keep values consistent across notes so filtering and sorting work reliably later.
