NotePlan is a native (Mac & iOS) calendar driven note-taking app for pros built on top of plain text Markdown files saved in a local folder (+ notes are linkable).

Great job. I love that is a native app whereas notion and others use electron.
?makers Do you have plans to add a code block with triple backquotes? As a developer, I miss having that.
I have been following the evolution and process of NotePlan for quite some time, but I just started to test out NotePlan 2 which is part of my Setapp subscription. I absolutely love NotePlans calendar-driven note-taking approach. It is an incredible piece of software. Since I am working across different platforms, I am deeply looking forward to a web version, after that, I will be completely sold. 🥰
Congrats on the launch Eduard!
It's very well thought out. The attention to detail is brilliant. It has become my main to-do app after trying many of the others. I would highly recommend trying it out. I have been using it from version 1, when I thought it was a great tool. The new version takes it up quite a few notches. The developer has really thought through his app to make it more useful and powerful.
?makers This looks amazing! I love so much about it. A couple lazy questions for ya though.
1. I'm specifically looking for the ability to attach a note to a meeting (not just a day or project. I don't see that capability here. Am I missing something? If not, could you explain the reasoning behind not being able to link a particular note to a particular meeting and then linking it to the day?
2. This seems like it might be able to integrate with Obsidian, not just be a replacement for it. Any thoughts or resources on that? I like Obsidian for lots of reasons that don't have to do with my daily notes, projects, or the like.
@nateritter Thanks!

This is planned! Just didn't have time yet to build it, but it's definitely something I want to support. So, it's high up the priority besides backlinks.
> Obsidian integration
Yes, there is a massive blog post on this going into every detail thanks to Ryan Murphy, the author: https://axle.design/why-and-how-...
TL;DR: In the preferences of NotePlan change the file-extension to .md and point your vault to NotePlans folder or just "Notes" folder as needed. Inside the advanced CloudKit preferences you find a button to open the notes in Finder. There are still some caveats, but I'm working on ironing them out.
@metzgereduard Outstanding! Thanks for the resources. And thanks for working on ironing out the kinks with the integration. I think this could very easily win product of MY year with that type of integration + event-based notes. I've been looking for this for a long time! Thank you!
Report
I was a NotePlan 2 user and was instantly hooked. Having beta tested 3 it was an instant purchase for me. The new upgrades make it so easy for me to track my ToDo's and notes and across Apple platforms.
What exactly is the difference between v3 and v2 — I've searched here, on reddit, and on the website — please just post a changelog somewhere, rather than recount every single feature of v3 (which does not make it clear what the differences are, it just makes it clear what is included in v3)
@balupton New in NotePlan 3:
- CloudKit sync (faster and more reliable than iCloud Drive)
- Folder structure support (in the left sidebar you can organize notes in folders)
- On Mac new User Interface redesigned to focus on the note-taking (editor is central)
- Timeline event block view on the right (to visualize when and how long events are)
- Timeblocking: "* buy milk at 2pm-3pm" in the right sidebar
- Global Command Bar for quick access, search and adding todos (CMD+J or globally Control + CMD + J)
- Review view: Improved view for search filters.
- Week view: 7 daily notes are listed vertically for better overview and events on the right
- Backlinking (see the references from another note to the current note at the top)
These are the biggest changes from the top of my head.
