Changelog

📅 Planner

• A calendar with Day, 2-, 3- and 4-day, Week and Month views. Drag on the grid to create an event, drag a block to move it, drag its edge to resize. Everything snaps to 15 minutes.
• Events link to notes, tags and subtasks. Click one for its details, Open note, Mark done, and a Join button when it has a meeting link.
• Repeating events (daily, weekdays, every 2 weeks on Mon and Thu, monthly on the 2nd Tuesday, yearly, and more). Moving one occurrence asks “This event” or “All events”.
• Habits with 🔥 streaks: tick today off on the Today page or in the calendar.
• An Inbox of tasks without a date. Drag one onto the calendar to plan it, or use Schedule on a phone.
• A Today page with a greeting, a timeline of the day, due and overdue tasks, and today’s habits.
• Emoji icons for notes, shown wherever the title is: tabs, lists, links, search and the calendar.
• Import calendar files (.ics) into new notes. Nothing is overwritten and nothing is sent anywhere.
• Phones open the calendar in the 3-day view, with a List mode.

Everything is plain Markdown frontmatter (during:, repeat:, remind:, meeting:, icon:), so your files stay yours. See Plan your day.

🔔 Reminders

• Add remind: 10m (or 1h, 1d, at 09:00) and get a notification on Windows or Android, with Open and Snooze 10 min.
• Reminders you missed while the app was closed arrive as one card, “You missed N reminders”, not one each.
• Reminders are worked out on your device. There is no push server.
• On Android, reminders are off until you turn them on in Settings, Reminders. Only then does Android ask for permission to show notifications.

⬆️ In-app updates

• On first launch Scaffold asks “Check for updates automatically?”. Say yes and it checks this website once a day; say no and it only checks when you press Check for updates now (Settings, Updates). The check sends no personal data.
• From 0.2.0 on, you update inside the app. No new download, no reinstall.

Coming from 0.1.x?

One last manual step: download 0.2.0 and install it over your existing app. Do not uninstall first. On Android, uninstalling deletes the notes stored in the app.

Privacy, updated

• Still no account and no telemetry.
• The only automatic network request is the optional daily update check, which you choose on first launch.
• Android now lists four permissions, each for one job: internet (the update check), notifications (only if you turn reminders on), run at startup (to set reminders up again after a restart) and install apps (to install updates). See Privacy.

Writing and linking

• Markdown editing with live preview, source and reading modes, with automatic and atomic saving.
• Wikilinks with autocomplete, aliases, heading and block links, embeds and nested tags. Links are updated when you rename or move a note.
• Backlinks, unlinked mentions, outgoing links and an outline panel.
• Properties as typed fields, and Bases that show notes as tables, lists or cards.
• Databases: a folder of notes shown as a table, board, gallery or calendar, with every value stored in frontmatter.
• A template gallery: project tracker, CRM, habit tracker, meeting notes, OKRs and reading list.
• Rich blocks: toggles, foldable callouts and click-to-load web embeds.
• Daily notes and templates with date, time and cursor variables.

Views

• Global and local graph with filters, colour groups, node sizing and adjustable forces.
• Canvas boards saved as open JSON Canvas files.
• Full-text search with operators for path, tag, file, section, properties and regular expressions.
• Bookmarks, a trash view, file recovery snapshots, a quick switcher and a command palette.

Your files

• A vault is any folder of Markdown files. Scaffold’s own data lives in a .scaffold folder; it never touches .git, .trash or configuration folders left by other tools.
• Import a folder without overwriting anything, export a zip, and publish selected notes as a static website.

Customise

• Light and dark themes, accent colour, density, fonts and optional CSS snippets.
• A plugin SDK with a permission for every capability, all off until you grant them.

Platforms

• Windows: installer for Windows 10 and 11. Preview builds are not code-signed, so SmartScreen will warn.
• Android (preview): a release-signed APK for Android 7.0 and newer, installed from the file. Vaults live in the app’s own storage for now (a “My notes” vault is created on first start, plus a demo vault); opening a folder from the device is not supported yet. The 0.1.x app requests no permissions, not even internet access, so web embeds open in the browser instead of inside a note.
• macOS and Linux builds are not available yet.
• No account, no paid tier, no telemetry.
