TomeWhat if Apple Notes
just saved to .md files?
That's Tome: A beautiful notes app that stores everything as plain markdown files on your Mac.
How I actually use Tome
Built for the way I work. Maybe it fits how you work too.
Command palette for everything
I open files, run commands, and switch views without touching my mouse. ⌘⇧P opens the command palette. ⌘P finds any file instantly.
Vim navigation in the editor
I edit notes with hjkl, jump with w and b, and never leave home row. Full Normal and Insert modes, just like Vim.
Make it your own
I created templates for weekly reviews, project kickoffs, and meeting notes. Now I spin up new docs in seconds with my exact structure.
Kanban for my todos
I often use Kanban boards to track what I'm working on. Drag cards between columns, see progress at a glance, ship faster.
Snippets for everything
I type /today and get today's date. /cb pastes my clipboard. Create your own snippets for text you type over and over.
Zen mode for deep focus
When I need to write without distractions, I hit ⌘⇧. Everything fades away except my words.
Capture thoughts instantly
Global hotkey brings up a quick capture window from anywhere. Jot down the idea, hit enter, back to what I was doing.
Pay once. Keep it forever.
