HushJot

Markdown blockquotes. Like an email reply.

Start a line with > and a space to quote it, just as email clients mark a reply. Everything else in Markdown works inside a quote.

On the left, what you type. On the right, what you get. Every result here was rendered by HushJot itself.

Questions

Blockquotes, answered.

How do I quote text in Markdown?
Start each line with > and a space.
How do I nest a quote?
Use two: > > quoted twice.
What about callouts like > [!NOTE]?
Those are GitHub’s alerts, and Obsidian has a similar callout syntax. They are not standard Markdown; in HushJot and many other apps they show as an ordinary quote.
Is there a shortcut?
In HushJot, select the lines and press ⌘⇧. (Ctrl+Shift+. on Windows and Linux).

Write it, see it, keep it private.
