But since it's just plain text files, you can manipulate the data directory yourself. I can't speak for a PR, I'm not involved in the development.

I'd be glad to try my best at a pull request for this feature (If someone does know of an app which supports the front-matter, I am interested (Android)). But there is nothing stopping a mobile app developer adding support to read this front-matter, which also allows them to extend the functionality and flexibility of their app. So simple search of note names and plain text content will suffice. It is not for a long duration of editing. There's currently no app that supports the notebook structure of Notableįor me the purpose of mobile editing is quick edits/adds, and retrieval of quick data. But the problem being solved is not organisation as Notable is doing the organisation part at a higher level. I'm not sure how things scale with 100s, 1000s, of notes in a single directory. This gives the added benefit of a more organised data folderĪ dated by creation/modified folder would help a form of organisation. That's how I see things, not as an organisational, but more search/filtering addition. To me, a tag is not a reference to where it belongs, but what it is, the flavour of it, the status, etc. I much do prefer the approach of being fully flexible in both. The Tag vs Notebook element is more of a users choice to me. So, is there basically any difference between notebooks and tags right now? To duplicate would result in conflicts when edited outside, and to create links/shortcuts can affect backups/copies not taking the actual file but the shortcut, and symlinks/hardlinks are hard to maintain across systems with different filesystems as well as sync tool compatibility (Dropbox etc). In such a case, to determine which sub-folder-notebook it would reside in would become difficult. A setting to that allows creation of folders in the data folder when creating a notebook.Ī note can belong to multiple notebooks.
