FAQs
-
Why should I write my notes in Markdown?
Markdown offers a widely supported plain text format that is easy to transfer to other applications, easy to read in raw form, and ensures consistent formatting across all notes. -
What are the benefits of using Git to store notes?
Using Git for note storage provides free synchronization across devices, unlimited version history, enhanced merge conflict resolution, easy self-hosting, ability to share notebooks, and the option to publish content as websites or blogs. -
When and how often does data synchronization occur for Git/GitHub/iCloud Drive notebooks?
Synchronization is triggered on application startup and every minute thereafter. Changes such as creating, updating, or moving notes will also immediately initiate sync. -
Can I connect only specific GitHub repositories instead of the whole account?
Yes, by selecting the generic Git notebook provider and using a fine-grained personal access token, access can be limited to specific repositories. -
Why should I pay for the native NotesHub application if I can use the web version for free?
The native application offers platform-specific features like iCloud Drive support, improved system integration, and no limitations on the size of Git or GitHub notebooks compared to the web version.
