Boost Note is an open-source Markdown note-taking application designed primarily for developers who want a lightweight yet powerful environment for organizing technical documentation, code snippets, API references, and project wikis. Created by Junyoung Choi, the program combines a distraction-free writing interface with syntax highlighting, live preview, and LaTeX support, making it equally suitable for drafting README files, recording algorithms, or maintaining personal knowledge bases. The editor stores notes as plain .md files that can be synchronized through Git or cloud drives, so teams can version-control their shared documentation alongside source code. Since its first public build, the project has advanced through eleven releases; the current general-availability build is 0.23.1, which refines the tabbed workspace, expands the built-in snippet manager, and improves rendering speed for large documents. Users can switch between a dark and light theme, customize keyboard shortcuts, and extend functionality through a growing collection of community plug-ins that add diagrams, charts, and task lists. Typical use cases range from individual developers tracking coding experiments to startups maintaining collaborative handbooks and to students archiving lecture notes in STEM subjects. The software is distributed within the Developer Tools / Documentation category and runs natively on Windows, macOS, and Linux, with portable builds available for USB drives. Boost Note is available for free on get.nero.com, where downloads are delivered through trusted Windows package sources such as winget, guaranteeing that the latest version is fetched automatically and enabling batch installation alongside other applications.
