Changelog
Markdawn is in public beta. This changelog tracks the product updates that make the same pages more useful for people, terminals, and AI assistants.
- The browser app now has a dedicated space for signing in, creating pages, and collaborating with a workspace.
- The transition from learning about Markdawn to using it is clearer: when you are ready to work, go straight to the workspace.
- The new documentation site brings the first steps into one place: create a page, import notes, organize folders, and share access.
- When you are ready to go deeper, the same site covers the CLI, API, AI assistant workflows, and self-hosting.
- Guided setup gives new users a clear path from an empty workspace to imported notes and a connected agent workflow.
- markdown folder imports now join single-file and Obsidian vault imports, making it easier to bring an existing workspace without flattening it first.
- Notes with empty tag metadata can now be imported without treating an empty field as an error.
- This keeps migration focused on the content instead of requiring frontmatter cleanup first.
- Doctor and whoami now show resolved configuration and token access, making it easier to understand the environment before a command runs.
- Commands, imports, exports, updates, and installers report progress and structured outcomes more clearly for both people and scripts.
- The CLI now handles the content lifecycle from a terminal: create, inspect, move, remove, restore, import, and export pages and folders.
- Explicit confirmations, failure reporting, and machine-readable output make those operations usable by both people and scripts.
- Because the CLI and browser share a workspace model, teams can switch interfaces without maintaining a second copy.
- Agents can make targeted content changes with preconditions and idempotency instead of relying on blind writes.
- Diagnostics and skill workflows expose access, configuration, and supported operations before an agent changes content.
- When a write outcome is uncertain, the workflow avoids automatic retries that could duplicate a change.
- The standalone CLI gives people and agents a terminal interface to the same pages they use in the browser.
- Authenticated workflows, safe content editing, shell completion, and platform installers make the first terminal session practical.
- Typed and pasted URLs now become links without interrupting the editor workflow.
- Link handling respects code, formatting, and document boundaries instead of changing content that should remain plain text.
- Favorite pages and folders now appear alongside the rest of the workspace on the home dashboard.
- Favorites keep frequently used knowledge within reach while preserving the existing access and collaboration controls.
- Pages and folders can now be shared with View, Edit, and Admin roles, so collaborators get the access they need without a complicated permission model.
- Real-time permission changes keep active sessions aligned as access changes.
- When access is lost or a collaboration connection becomes stale, read-only behavior protects the document from unsafe edits.
- Deployment checks and health reporting now make rollouts easier to verify before the application is restarted.
- The deployment documentation includes a migration guide for moving a Markdawn deployment between servers.
- Properties support drag-and-drop ordering, inline editing, autocomplete, tags, and richer values.
- Keyboard shortcuts and slash commands make common editor actions faster to discover and repeat.
- Tables support insertion, keyboard navigation, and CSV or TSV paste.
- markdown exports now preserve more formatting and can bundle referenced images as local assets.
- Wiki links can suggest pages as you write, resolve to stable targets, and update backlinks when documents change.
- Collaborative cursors, user avatars, and connection status make it clear who is working in a page with you.
- Folders, tags, page links, backlinks, uploads, and the workspace explorer give pages a durable structure.
- The editor moved to a markdown-centered foundation, with an Obsidian import flow for bringing existing notes into the workspace.
- Search, favorites, recent pages, and Trash make it easier to find, recover, and organize work as a workspace grows.
- Public pages, page links, mentions, raw markdown viewing, and export connect writing with sharing and portability.
- The first working product brought together authentication, a browser editor, page persistence, workspace navigation, and collaboration.
- Import and export workflows, workspace management, member invites, search, and a deployable application established the foundation for what followed.
