Hi @tamlok I'd love to know - what drove you to build VNote?

@abadesi Hi, I think most Markdown editors do not know Markdown well and they even treat side-by-side live preview as the advantage of their products. VNote also utilize lots of the pros of the code editors from a programmer's perspective.

302.4 MB! Isn't that too much for a note taking app?

@ozgrozer Do you mean memory usage? VNote uses `QtWebEngine`, an embedded browser, to render the HTML content. And I admit that optimization is needed. :)

@tamlok I mean size of the .app file. It's too much. What's inside of it? :) Apple's Notes.app is 13.3 MB. Evernote.app is 133.7 MB.

@ozgrozer I think it is the `QWebEngineProcess` inside it.

Good stuff, but... Why is this better than using plain-old vim to write up an MD file and then just using a Chrome plugin, or something similar, to preview that file? Interested if there are other features that make it stand out! Keep coding!

@yoaquim I think it is the INTEGRATION, as well as MathJax and PlantUML. Check out this ![image]() for the effect of VNote's In-Place Preview. :)
