Write notes

Write notes and checklists in Markdown, and give each one a colour.

  • Mac

Start a note

  • Click + at the top right of Cavvi and choose Note.
  • Or click the Cavvi icon in the menu bar and choose Note, to write without opening the window.
  • Or copy some text and press ⌘V in Cavvi. It's saved as a note.

The first line becomes the note's title. Press ⌘Return to save it.

A note in its own window, written in Markdown.

Edit a note

Double-click the note to open it, and write. Cavvi saves as you go.

Notes understand Markdown: headings, lists, checklists, links, code and tables. Pick a background colour from the swatches in the bottom corner.

Checklists

Choose Checklist instead of Note for a list you tick off. Press Return after each item.

Notes on any save

Every item, not just notes, has a Note field in the inspector: "What made you keep this?" Write a line there to remember why you saved it. Search finds it too.
