You are a multitasker. So are your tools.

Your Mac is your vault, and you are not limited to a single folder: add any folder to a space. A blog, a repository, a personal knowledge base, the folder your agents read. Tabs and splits let you work on more than one thing at a time. Switch spaces and the whole desk comes with you, and it's still there tomorrow.

The Writing space: blog, reading notes and journal folders, two documents side by side The Projects space: the Zed repository with its docs folder expanded, Getting Started open The Skills space: the ~/.claude/skills folder, the pdf skill's SKILL.md open The Knowledge space: a personal knowledge base of short notes in topic folders, a cocktail recipe open

Writing · a blog, reading notes and a journal; two panes, a wikilink between them

Less is more.

Goodbye, distractions. Inkstone is WYSIWYG all the way: Markdown becomes the page as you type, and nothing reflows when you click a heading. No preview pane, no markers, no jump. Your flow state stays where it is.

Everything Markdown. Nothing in the way. At Mac speed.

No Electron. Everything local. Every Markdown feature you write with, rendered as you type.

Native, not Electron

Native SwiftUI, with ProseMirror's power inside. Quick with ten thousand files and two-hundred-thousand-word documents.

All of Markdown

Tables with drag handles, task lists, footnotes, bold and italic and the rest. Inline code, highlighted code blocks, and math, rendered in place and kept as plain text.

Wikilinks across folders

Type two brackets and pick any file in the space, whichever folder it lives in: a journal entry can point at a blog draft. Aliases, headings and ⌘-click to follow, compatible with the vault you already have.

Focus and typewriter

Write like nothing else is open. Focus Mode fades the page down to the paragraph under your hands, and Typewriter Mode keeps that paragraph at eye level as you type. Your eyes stay still. The words come.

File versions

Every save keeps a version. Roll back to the last one, or step through them all with a diff of what changed. Nothing to set up; old versions clear themselves on your schedule.

Watches the folder

Point a space at the folder your coding agents write to. New files, moves and edits show up as they happen; if a file changes under an open tab, Inkstone reloads or asks, your call.

Quick Open: three letters typed, two files matched across both folders
