![]() ![]() YouTube automatically generates an image for every video ( ), so we can use that and link the image to the video on YouTube. We can take that ID and put it in the following template: ()]() The last part of the URL ( 8q2IjQOzVpE) is the ID of the video. Since YouTube makes this easy, we’ll use them as an example. You could do this with practically any video on any video service. If your Markdown application doesn’t support HTML, you can’t embed a video, but you can come close by adding an image and a link to the video. If your Markdown application supports HTML, you should be able to embed a video in your Markdown file by copying and pasting the HTML code provided by a video website like YouTube or Vimeo. The rendered output looks like this: Table of Contents You can separate paragraphs within a table cell by using one or more HTML tags. But there are workarounds for at least two common table issues: Line breaks and lists. You can’t use many Markdown syntax elements to format the text in table cells. Here’s a partial list of HTML entities for symbols:įor a complete list of available HTML entities, refer to Wikipedia’s page on HTML entities. For example, if you want to display the copyright sign (©), you can copy and paste the HTML entity for copyright ( ©) into your Markdown document. The symbol should appear as expected in the rendered output.Īlternatively, if your Markdown application supports HTML, you can use the HTML entity for whatever symbol you want to use. For example, if you need to display Pi (π), just find the symbol on a webpage and copy and paste it into your document. However, in most cases, you can copy and paste whatever symbol you want to use into your Markdown document. Markdown doesn’t provide special syntax for symbols. So if you stick four instances of before a paragraph, the paragraph will look like it’s indented four spaces. Basically, every in your Markdown source will be replaced with a space in the rendered output. ![]() This should probably be your option of last resort as it can get awkward. It also provides template customization options so that you can make the rendered document look the way you expect it to, indentation and all.Īnother option, if your Markdown processor supports HTML, is to use the HTML entity for non-breaking space ( ). For example, iA Writer allows you to customize indentation settings for the editor in the application preferences. This is common in applications that are more oriented towards desktop publishing. Your best bet might be to use a Markdown editor that supports indentation. Markdown support Weaknesses: No advanced features No drawing tools No text formatting Features 40 Terrible Simplenote can suffice for basic note-taking for free and by that, we mean really. But what if you need to indent a paragraph the old-fashioned way, using the tab key? Markdown doesn’t provide an easy way of doing that. You can use trailing whitespace to create line breaks, and you can use tabs to create code blocks. Tabs and whitespace have a special meaning in Markdown. Tried adding a collaborator via email and nothing happened: no error, no email.email: Twitter: and Developer: Automattic and Simperium.Read on to learn about the ugly, bad, good, great and awesome aspects of Simplenote. I recommend this app to anyone needing a simple and fast note-taking app that works across multiple platforms or anyone that needs to collaborate with someone else on notes. There are even other apps that use their API such as NvPy which is a Python-based app. What's great about Simplenote is that there are also apps for iOS, Mac, Windows, Linux and the Web and synchronization works between all of them so that's pretty good. The bottom line is the app is on solid ground. Don't worry if you didn't get all of that. The Android app was developed in 2013 by Automattic and they host the Simperium sync infrastructure. Simperium also developed the sync service that Simplenote uses. The service was created in 2008 by Simperium so it is not new and there are still updates being made. The screenshot below shows higher donation amounts but I expect that's because they lowered it. ![]() ![]() I'm not sure why they don't have a lower monthly donation tier as I don't know anyone that would pay that much unless they can write it off. You can opt to pay USD 19.99 a month or USD 199.99 a year to support it, which doesn't give you any more functionality and only removes a banner under Settings. It is not local-first so you have to create a FREE account using your email address or log in via a WordPress account. Simplenote is really good if you're looking for an Open-Source, fast, multi-platform, note-taking app that supports Markdown, has bi-directional sync, supports linking notes together, and revision history.
