Why Mark exists

Tired of bloated markdown apps requiring cloud logins, subscriptions, and telemetry just to take notes, I built Mark between university lectures.

It is 100% local, fast, and free forever. No accounts, no cloud sync lock-in. Just open a folder, write your notes, and own your files.
