Howdy, is this a native app?

Yeah this is a native app, written in swift.

Ulysses Look-alike, with added preview. Nice app ;)

Thank you. Most note-taking apps follow the same 3-paned split-view format, so you can say that ;)

This looks awesome, but I can't use anything for notes without mobile support. I'm excited for when that day comes. :)

Received this question a couple of times, about the app being native or not, so clarifying it. The only web view based component in the app is the preview, everything else is made of basic native elements, & the whole app is coded in swift. I think the doubt rose from the point that you could theme it with hex-color codes. But how that works is that, whenever you change the theme, the app reads the light / dark plist files and assigns color to app components after converting the hex-colors to NSColors. I hope this resolves the doubt.
