Export notes as Markdown or PDF
The reason to build this is not a missing feature — it is that trusting a program you maintain alone with years of notes should not mean the notes can only ever be read by that program. Reachable from a note's toolbar, a notebook's context menu, and Account → Alle Notizen exportieren. Markdown carries over everything with an equivalent: headings, lists, quotes, code, tables, and task state as `- [x]`. A link to another note in the same export becomes a relative link to its file; a link to a note outside it degrades to the plain title rather than leaving a dead reference. Notes with images or a drawing arrive as a ZIP so the files travel along, and a multi-note export gets a README index. PDF goes through the browser's print dialog rather than a bundled PDF library — the browser already has a good one, and it is the only format where drawings sit inside the document. Markdown gets them as a PNG beside the text, with a line saying so, because dropping them silently would be the wrong kind of quiet. Two decisions worth recording: - the ZIP writer is eighty lines here rather than a dependency. Note text is small and images are already compressed, so compression bought nothing, and stored entries are a handful of fixed-layout records. - Markdown escaping only covers what changes meaning mid-line, plus a leading list or heading marker. Escaping every character Markdown ever uses turns a sentence into `Hallo\. Alles gut\!`, which defeats the point of choosing a readable format. 42 unit tests on the serialiser and the archive format, plus a browser suite that unpacks a real download and reads the bytes back.
