— the Flashpage team
Your notes are too important to be rented by subscription, locked in a database, or mined in the cloud. Flashpage keeps every word as a plain file on your own computer — calm to write in, and yours to keep, forever.
You own your data
Files in a folder you control. No servers, no telemetry. Back up by copying one folder.
Calm & focused
A high-contrast, text-first interface that gets out of the way while you write.
Built to last
Plain Markdown outlives the app. No proprietary format can hold your work hostage.
A notes app with the polish of a design app
A clean editor, a design canvas, and instant search — brought together while keeping every page a plain, portable file.
Plain-file storage
Every page is a standard Markdown file with a small header. Readable by any app, portable forever.
Local-first & private
Runs entirely on your Windows PC. No account, no cloud, no internet required — your notes never leave.
WYSIWYG editor
Word-processor-style editing that quietly saves clean Markdown. Slash menu, smart lists, and a full toolbar.
Instant search
Type anywhere to search. Filter by tag with # and subject with $, mixed freely — results ranked smartly.
Design canvas
Typeable shapes, an image library, video and audio, signatures and redaction — a Canva-style sidebar.
Export anywhere
Polished PDF, editable Word, or plain Markdown — exported silently in the background while you keep working.
Nearly every action has a shortcut
Build a whole page without touching the mouse. Press Ctrl + / any time for a cheat sheet that stays in sync with the app.

A true WYSIWYG editor with a formatting toolbar, a / slash menu, and smart lists. Behind the scenes it's all standard Markdown — round-trippable and future-proof.

Cell Respiration
Glucose is broken down to release energy stored as ATP. The process has three stages:
- 1. Glycolysis
- 2. Krebs cycle
- 3. Electron transport chain
A first-class home for your code
Drop in a snippet and Flashpage renders a clean, IDE-style code block — keywords, strings, types, and variables each get their own color, so notes stay as readable as your editor. It's standard fenced Markdown underneath.
- Syntax highlighting for popular languages
- Fenced code blocks and inline code
- Monospace fonts, set per page
- Exports to PDF with formatting intact
