Why not something else?
Why not github.dev?
Code-first. No markdown live preview, no PDF export, no drafts, no link rewriting on move.
Why not Obsidian?
Desktop app with manual Git sync. Here: zero install, phone-friendly reading/quick edits, desktop for full work.
Why not StackEdit?
No multi-file commits, no conflict recovery, no file tree ops, no link rewriting.
Why not OneNote / Notion?
Proprietary format, lock-in, no git history. Here notes are plain files in your repo — Markdown or HTML — forever yours.
Questions
Is my code safe?
Server never stores your token. Token lives only in this
tab's sessionStorage, destroyed on close.
Does it work with private repositories?
Yes. Same OAuth grants access to any repo you permit. Previews work on private repos too.
What if I lose connection?
Edits land in IndexedDB within 400 ms. Reconnect and pick keep-or-discard — nothing merges automatically.
Can I self-host it?
Yes — Cloudflare Pages free tier. Callback is Pages
Functions. See README-CLOUDFLARE.md.
What about my OneNote / Obsidian collection?
Export to markdown, push to a GitHub repo, open it here — plain files with full git history.
