Choose from Terminal Green, Amber, Modern Dark, Light Paper, and Modern Terminal color schemes.
Markdown Preview
Write in plain text and toggle a live-rendered markdown preview whenever you need it.
Instant Search
Find any note in seconds by searching across both titles and content.
Auto Save
Turn on auto save with a configurable delay, so you never lose a thought.

Download Supa Notepad
Free and open, for macOS, Windows, and Linux.
Builds are published automatically by the Azure DevOps pipeline (azure-pipelines.yml).
macOS: the app isn't notarized by Apple yet, so Gatekeeper may say it "is damaged and can't be opened."
It isn't actually damaged — just run this once in Terminal after moving it to Applications:
xattr -cr "/Applications/Cod3Lab - Supa Notepad.app"
