How Markdown notes fit into LogPad

Markdown is useful when notes should stay readable as plain text but still support simple structure such as headings, lists, links, and emphasis.

Use Markdown for structure

• Meeting notes with headings and action lists.
• Research notes with links and bullets.
• Writing fragments that may move into another editor later.
• Project notes that need simple sections without heavy formatting.

Keep capture fast

Markdown should not make quick capture slower. Start with plain text, then add simple Markdown only when it makes the note easier to read or export.

Export and portability

Markdown export is useful when you want notes to remain portable across text editors, archives, and personal knowledge systems. It keeps the content understandable even outside the app.

Example structure

# Meeting notes

- Decision made
- Open question
- Next action
