We’ve been hard at work since Boostnote v0.8.19, many contributors built some awesome features and improvements for Boostnote users.

Today, Boostnote v0.8.20 is available on Mac, Windows and Linux for everyone.

📣 Announcement for Windows users / Updating to v0.8.20

We are terribly sorry, please download and install the app again. Data will be taken over without problems.

Mac and Linux users are unnecessary to download again.

This problem was happened when upgrading Electron version because we’ve been using too old electron-winstaller.

Anyway, we've confirmed the updater is working again after several fixes. This won't bother you anymore after v0.8.20.

1, Export to html

Save the html of a rendered markdown note to file. You can use this feature at Info button in note detail.

2, Close the bracket automatically

When enter a bracket in the editor, close it automatically.

This PR restores the ability to jump to other notes from links within markdown notes. Thanks for fixing robbawebba :)
