Create A Page In Markdawn

Create a page for one useful piece of information, such as a launch checklist, meeting notes, or a project decision. The page title is separate from the markdown content.

Sign in to Markdawn in your browser. You do not need to know markdown before you start. The editor accepts ordinary text and markdown syntax.

  1. Sign in to Markdawn.
  2. Choose New page.
  3. Enter a title that describes the page.
  4. Start writing in the editor.

The page opens with the title you entered. Markdawn stores the title as page metadata and does not automatically add an H1 to the markdown body.

Leave the page and open it again from the page list. Your title and content should still be present. If you wrote a long page, add headings so people can scan it later.

Type [[ and start writing the title of another page. Choose a result to insert a link.

You can also write a link directly:

[[Project Plan]]

To show different text while linking to the same page, use an alias:

[[Project Plan|the current plan]]

Links can point to a heading on a page:

[[Project Plan#Risks]]

Start with the information someone will need later. Add headings when the page becomes long, link to related pages instead of duplicating context, and use a folder when several pages belong together.

See Markdown Support for syntax supported by the editor and API. When you have several related pages, use Organize Pages and Folders.

If New page is unavailable, confirm that you are signed in and that the browser has finished loading your pages. If the page title is correct but the content is missing after reopening it, reload the page and check your connection before writing more.
