Feature Request: Autosave notes #26

Open ibrand opened 4 years ago

ibrand commented 4 years ago

Describe the Problem When I switch to a different note as I'm editing it asks me if I'd like to save the previous one. In the standard mac notes app and in other notes apps I use, my notes are already saved by the time I navigate to a new note and there's no pop up. With that alert, it's a little slower to switch notes and easier to accidentally not save my note.

Solution Automatically save my notes as I type

Additional Context I wouldn't be surprised if this is a design choice, and would love to hear if you have a preference on this!

Hi @ibrand yes, I'm aware that notes apps usually autosave. I am currently using easyMDE as a markdown editor in this app. Whilst it has a basic autosave function it is not really usable in this case.

cf. https://github.com/Ionaru/easy-markdown-editor/issues/42

I'm not prepared to make a 'hack' of easyMDE, but if easyMDE were to provide the functionality, I would almost certainly implement this.
