Document Node is a lightweight application, where you can arrange your Markdown or Rich Text content in a flexible local folder structure (notes taking), review and modify your document in a Mind Map view, export documents in various formats.

All documents sit in your local folders, so you fully own your data forever. Never bother the cloud services which can shut down, get bought, or change privacy policy any time again.

• Side-by-side preview
• Quick-inserting images and tables
• Spell checking for more than 10 languages
• Taking screenshots from the text editor
• Excel-like editing on Markdown tables
• Customizing Markdown themes

Straightforward Mind Map View

Every document has a Mind Map view naturally in Document Node.

• Restructuring your document via drag-and-drop
• Concentrate on one document section at a time
• 15 built-in Mind Map themes
• Customizing Mind Map themes via JSON

Flexible Tags

In addition to folders, tagging is the most important way to organize your documents. Being able to rename and restructure your tags gives the maximum flexibility so that you can keep your tags up-to-date at any time. In Document Node it’s simply done via drag-and-drop.

Here are some quick tips about how they work:

• A tag is just a word with a pound sign
• You can add multiple #tags anywhere in a document, separated by a space
• Multi-word tags are wrapped in hashtags, like #overseas travel#
• Quickly add existing tags with auto-complete
• Tags View on the left sidebar allows you to filter all documents having that tag
• Infinite nested tags by slashes, like #Journal/2021/06 - this means #Journal will be the parent tag in Tags View
• Easily refactor the tags tree in Tags View (renaming, deleting, or moving around by drag-and-drop)

Backlinks

Bi-directional links interconnect your documents together. We have developed backlinks and links in this version.

Click the “Link” icon in the bottom right corner of the text editor, all backlinks and links will be listed below the text editor.

Specifically, the following links of the current document will be listed.

• Backlinks - the documents which are pointing to the current document
• External links - web links etc.
• Document links - other documents that the current document is pointing to
• Jump links - the jump links within the current document

Click each link, and it will jump to the linked resource accordingly.

Distraction-free Writing Space

In the editor-only typewriter mode, all UI components except the text editor fade-out, no one can interrupt your writing thoughts.

• Focus on the current sentence
• Focus on the current paragraph
• Typewriter mode
