Quick Notes

Create simple markdown notes in Raycast stored locally. No integrations required!

Features

• View, create, and delete markdown notes
• Search by note title, body, or tag
• Draft and auto-save if you accidentally exit out while creating/editing a new note
• Quick toggle tags for a note
• View note metadata & tags
• Export notes to a folder to use in another application
• Emoji Support everywhere using : 😁
• Setup auto-save to a folder of your choice, set in preferences
• Tag manager

If you’d like, you can export or auto-sync your notes as markdown to a directory to use in a 3rd-party app like Obisidian, VS Code, or Notion. This is completely optional though and notes will still save locally.
