Show HN: A plugin that adds commands, templates, markdown & math to Apple Notes

[rexec]

I love Apple Notes, but it lacks many handy features from products like Notion and Obsidian. I'm way too comfortable in the Apple ecosystem so I decided to add some missing features to Notes with an extension called NotesCmdr.

NotesCmdr let's you format text with slash commands & markdown, use templates and do math in Apple Notes.

To get around the lack of a plugin system, I'm using the macOS accessibility API and AppleScript (through osascript) to interface with Notes. Took some finessing to make it feel native, but I'm pretty happy with the result.

Awesome! I wish notes could support code blocks. Maybe you can try do something about it?

[rexec]

True! I'll look into it

This is fantastic! I’d like to share it with quotion.co users, I believe they will love it

This is seriously impressive. Well done.

I'll add another vote for code blocks.
