Thanks for the clarification, still haven’t really played with it, but take it these are the mechanics (not the workflow)…

* You have a big chronologically ordered list of notes

* By default, all notes are in view

* You can make a title (instructions in demo), but significance of title is only internal to note (not for ordering/management)

* Big list of notes is union of two disjoint sets: pinned and unpinned

* Can view either all notes, pinned notes, or un-pinned notes

But not sure if I have that right. FWIW appreciate some of the design decisions I’m seeing, just haven’t had time to poke around to understand.

You're right. The order is chronological with the pinned notes at the top. User can toggle showing of pinned notes. There's also archived notes which you can find in the main menu (top-left corner).

In the beginning, I intended to add dragging of notes to change the order and organizing notes in folders. But, honestly, after using it for a while I realized that I don't really miss those features at all even though I have thousands of notes. As long as the search is fast I can always find what I need quickly.

Again, thank you. I'll add this info to the demo note.

  • Ah got it - pinned notes float to the top

    FWIW agree with your call on not building too many organisational tools in

    Thanks again for sharing; look forward to trying it out
