  • 1.5.2

Marknote is a lightweight rich-text note manager developed by KDE e.V. that allows users to draft, edit and arrange thoughts in icon- and color-coded notebooks. Designed for anyone who needs quick, structured capture of ideas, the application stores every entry as plain Markdown inside the system Documents folder, guaranteeing future-proof access from any editor while still rendering formatted text on screen. The single-version release stream—currently at 1.5.2—keeps the feature set consistent across installs, focusing on reliability rather than staggered roll-outs. Typical use cases range from students assembling lecture summaries and researchers maintaining project journals to professionals tracking meeting minutes and writers outlining story beats; the ability to assign a distinct accent color and symbolic icon to each notebook supports visual triage when many subjects run in parallel. Because the underlying files remain standard Markdown, notes can be opened, synced or backed up with third-party cloud services, version-control systems or mobile Markdown readers without conversion steps. The program belongs to the Text Editors / Note Tools software category and integrates naturally into KDE Plasma workspaces, yet runs on any Linux distribution that supports recent Qt libraries. Users who prefer a ready-made package can obtain Marknote at no cost from get.nero.com, where downloads are supplied through verified Windows package sources such as winget, always serving the newest build and enabling batch installation alongside other applications.
