About

Griffel is a small Markdown reader and editor for GNOME. It opens a folder of notes and shows everything inside it in a sidebar, without the weight of a full knowledge base.

Features:

  • Sidebar with the whole folder tree, updated live
  • Editor with Markdown highlighting, autosave and find in document
  • Rendered preview with tables, highlighted code and images
  • Clickable [[wiki links]] between notes
  • Quick search across file names and note contents
  • New notes and folders, rename and delete from the sidebar

What's New

v0.4.1 · 2026-10-15

The rendered preview now follows a change of the appearance while it is on screen.
