Continuity is a native Win32 markdown notes editor for Windows. Every keystroke is written to a local SQLite database, so saving a file is an export rather than a durability step. Markdown source stays canonical while a live renderer projects headings, lists, checkboxes, links, tables, inline code, and images in place.
It supports multi-pane and multi-tab session restore, vault folders with autosave, spreadsheet-style pipe-table editing, configurable themes and keymaps, and a portable mode that keeps settings, notes, and backups beside the executable.
