Audience
Technical writers, product managers, support leads and engineering teams whose documentation lives in a git repository - including the people on the team who do not use git.
About Notula
Notula is a free WYSIWYG Markdown editor for the docs as code already in your git repository. It opens the repo as a tree of documents and edits them with no syntax on screen - no hashes, no asterisks, no table pipes, not even on the line the cursor is on - then adds the review layer a code editor has no answer for: comment on a passage, reply, mention someone, suggest an edit, resolve. A mention arrives as a notification and waits in an inbox.
Threads are committed beside the document as plain files. Nothing is written into the Markdown, and a one-word edit stays a one-word diff. Tables are edited as tables and Mermaid blocks are drawn as diagrams. It drives the git already on the machine, and never rewrites history, stages the whole worktree or switches a branch.
Free, no account, no server. macOS and Windows, no Linux build yet. The source is closed and the builds are not code-signed yet, so the first launch takes one extra step.
