Question 1

Where are my notes saved?

Accepted Answer

In your browser's localStorage. Notepad has no backend; nothing is uploaded. Closing the tab and coming back later resumes the same document. Clearing site data deletes notes.

Question 2

Does Notepad support markdown?

Accepted Answer

Yes — there's an optional preview mode that renders markdown. You can also import and export plain markdown files.

Question 3

Can I download my notes?

Accepted Answer

Yes — export as plain text or markdown via the toolbar. The file goes through your browser's download flow; it never touches a server.

Question 4

Are there keyboard shortcuts?

Accepted Answer

Standard editing shortcuts (Cmd/Ctrl+B for bold, Cmd/Ctrl+I for italic in markdown mode, Cmd/Ctrl+S to download). Word count and character count appear in the status bar.

Question 5

Does it work offline?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Once loaded, the page is fully functional offline. Your notes are local; nothing needs the network.
