What we think about the Design of Notable?

The design won't win awards, none of the markdown apps look great, but they are functional in look and easy to use. So we won't bash it too much. Those who have used markdown apps will find that this is a good middle ground compared to some of the more distracting ones. Zen focus mode view is really nice as a design.
