Export and Import

Export and Import

All export and import options are in Settings → Export (gear icon → Export section).

Export to HTML

Produces a standalone .html file — a single file with all CSS and JavaScript embedded, requiring no server or internet connection to read.

The HTML export includes:

• Full outline with collapsible nodes (click ▶/▼ to expand/collapse)
• Navigation sidebar (toggle with the ☰ button)
• Tag panel for filtering by tag
• Full-text search bar
• Depth-level filter buttons (show only top N levels)
• Light/dark theme toggle
• Reading-width toggle

The exported file honours the current document's theme, accent colour, and outline format (bullets / numbers / letters).

Export to Org

Downloads the current file's raw .org content as a file. Use this for backup or to open the file in Emacs or another org-mode editor.

This is the same content already on disk — it is a convenience download.

Export to Markdown

Converts the current outline to GitHub-flavoured Markdown (.md) and downloads it.

Conversion rules:

Org	Markdown
* Heading → # Heading (depth-matched)
*bold* → **bold**
/italic/ → *italic*
=code= → `code`
+strike+ → ~~strike~~
[[url][label]] → [label](url)
#+BEGIN_SRC lang → fenced code block
Status TODO → `TODO` prefix
Status DONE → strikethrough title

Import from Markdown

Replaces the current document's content with a .md file you select.

Warning: this overwrites the current outline. The previous version remains in git history (if the directory is a git repo) and can be recovered from there.

Conversion rules (reverse of export):

Markdown	Org
# Heading → * Heading (depth-matched)
**bold** → *bold*
*italic* → /italic/
`code` → =code=
~~strike~~ → +strike+
[label](url) → [[url][label]]
Fenced code block → #+BEGIN_SRC lang
> blockquote → plain text (quote marker stripped)

Headings become nodes in the tree; body text between headings becomes node body text.

Copy as Formatted Text

Ctrl+Shift+C — copies the visible outline to the clipboard with bold, italic, and links preserved (HTML rich text). Paste into Word, email, Notion, etc.

Copy as Plain Text

Ctrl+Shift+X — copies the visible outline as clean plain text with no *markup* characters.
