Bold goes bold on the second asterisk and headings grow into headings. Step back into formatted text and its markers come back so you can edit them.
Type / for everything
Headings, todos, quotes, callouts, tables, dividers, code blocks, footnotes, links, images and dates like today, tomorrow or next week.
Tables you click into
Edit a table cell by cell instead of lining up pipes. Paste one from a README and it just works.
Callouts in five kinds
Note, Tip, Important, Warning and Caution, written as plain Markdown blockquotes that read fine anywhere else.
Fold, drag, indent
Collapse a heading to its title, drag a line or a block somewhere else, and let Tab and Shift-Tab indent lists the way you hoped.
Dates that age
Type a date and it reads Today, then 3 days ago, then a plain date once it stops being urgent.
Footnotes
Press ⌥⌘E and a footnote lands at the bottom as plain [^1], numbered for you.
Focus when you need it
Focus Mode, a note pinned above other windows, or a note in its own window with a double-click.
More of Margin
A space is a folder you choose, and every note is one Markdown file inside it. Margin is a fast view over that folder, nothing more.
Each space is its own folder, its own note list, its own search and its own tint. One click and the others stop existing for a while.
Links between notes point at the note, not the filename, so reorganising at eleven at night does not break a single one.
Every parent is itself a note, with its own words, not a bare folder. The tree underneath is plain files and folders that read fine anywhere else.
Paste a link to a pull request or an issue and it shows its state, its checks and where the review stands, right in the note.
It does nothing on its own: no indexing, no reading as you type. Only what you point it at goes to the model you picked, and only when you ask.
