Hi and welcome to Larc Mini Alpha 1. ## Markdown Editor This app in at its core a **markdown editor**, just like Obsidian. All your notes are local markdown files living in a folder (vault) on your computer. Supported Markdown Syntaxes - `**bold**` - `italic` - `==highlight==` - lists (can be nested) - `-` for unordered lists - `1.` for order lists - `- [ ]` for checkbox - `>` for quote blocks - `---` for dividing line - `[link](www.link.com)` for web links ## AI Chat This app also gives you a built in AI Chat Sidebar on the right side that feeds the currently open note as context to the AI. Collapse / expand the right sidebar with `Command + E` Toggle the Context button to include your currently open note as context (green is on, red is off) In the AI chat input box, use "/" to activate **skills** -- pre-written prompts that can be edited in the settings. (open settings panel through `Command + ,`) ## Others Create new note with `Command + N` Close current note with `Command + W` Collpase / expand the file explorer (left sidebar) with `Command + S` --- ## So, what is this app really about? The big vision is to build an agentic note-taking app that guides the user through learning, thinking, and note-taking -- a Learning Architect (short for Larc). As of now, this is still a very early stage, and the app itself is just Obsidian with an AI Chat sidebar. The design is inspired by the [Obsidian Copilot](https://www.obsidiancopilot.com/en) Plugin and [Dia Browser](https://www.diabrowser.com/). --- Feedback of any form is immensely appreicated. Again, thank you for launching Larc Mini for the first time.
