Notes are organized by tags and grouped into notebooks. The entire note is editable inline anytime and your code snippets can be syntax highlighted in the language of your choice. Quiver supports super fast searching full text searching to find your notes fast.
And best of all, Quiver stores all your notes in plain JSON so you have full control of your content.

“Note-Taking for Nerds: Finally, a note-making app that handles rich text and code without messing up your formatting. A handy HTML export option may make this your new favourite way to write documentation, or compose posts for your tech blog.” – Nick Lockwood
“As a coder, Quiver was great because markdown was just “one” of its text editing features. The LATEX integration really put it over the top as a notebook for me.” – Erik Kerber
