The screen you edit on is the finished document. ■ What people use it for · Turning meeting notes into headings and bullets as the meeting happens · Writing specs and how-tos, then sharing a link for review · Tracking tasks as a checklist and ticking them off · Keeping research notes and reading notes, day by day · Drafting articles and blog posts in Markdown you can paste anywhere · Saving snippets of code and commands with syntax highlighting ■ Features · Styling as you type — headings, bold, italic, quotes, rules, footnotes and nested lists are formatted the moment you write them · Tables render as tables — click one to go back to the raw Markdown and edit it · Diagrams (flowcharts, sequence diagrams and more) drawn inline from mermaid syntax · Code blocks with syntax highlighting and a one-click copy button · Clickable checkboxes (- [ ] / - [x]) · Inline images, plus drag-and-drop upload · Paste a URL and get a link preview card · Six themes (Light, Sepia, Solar, Dark, Night, Contrast) and three text sizes · Available in 12 languages ■ Your files live in your Google Drive · Saved automatically.
