+# Notes
+
+Minimal notes: a collapsible list of notes on the left, a WYSIWYG Markdown editor (Nuxt UI `UEditor`) on the right.
+No folders. A note is named by its title, or by when it was created if the title is empty. Changes save themselves
+0.8 s after you stop typing, and when you leave the note or close the tab. Select text for the formatting toolbar;
+Markdown shortcuts (`# `, `- `, `**bold**`, …) also work.
+
+Search at the top of the list matches title and text (`/api/notes/docs?q=`, case-insensitive, parts of words too).
+It uses Baserow's search; Baserow only searches the fields a request includes, so the search includes `content`.
+
+Shortcuts (Ctrl instead of ⌘ outside macOS): **⌘ ⌥ N** new note, **⌘ E** show/hide the note list (so the editor's
+⌘ E for inline code is turned off; use backticks or the toolbar). Plain ⌘ N can't be used, the browser keeps it.
+
+**Table** (`NUXT_BASEROW_NOTES_APP_TABLE_ID`): `title` (single line text), `content` (long text without rich text; holds the
+Markdown), `created` and `updated` (dates with time, set by the
+server when a note is created or saved). The list is sorted by `created`, newest first. Rows added in Baserow directly have no dates and show as
+"Untitled" at the bottom. The token needs read, create, update and delete.
