- People working in existing Markdown vaults
- Worth noticing
- Its save flow checks for outside file changes, writes atomically, and keeps crash-recovery drafts separate from source notes.
Field notes
The workflow examples cover quick open, content search, Markdown source and live preview, plus a task dashboard with filters, due dates, and snooze. The page also describes support for mixed English, Hebrew, and Russian notes, with light and dark themes; these details are presented as features of the desktop editor, while the separate Brain concept is explicitly marked unavailable in the beta.
