I have an old Fire tablet that I've put LineageOS on. It's long in the tooth, but even with its crappy Amazon kernel it runs fairly nicely if I don't stress it. I'd like to have it as a no-distractions writing device with one of my mech keyboards paired to it.

I'm looking for a lightweight markdown note taking app or word processor that does not need a ton of features, but I would like support for simple keyboard shortcuts like ctrl-I, B, U, X, V and I'd prefer WYSIWIG display for any light formatting that markdown would support.

Any ideas?

EDIT: Seems like Markor is the first recommendation to check out. Thanks!

Markor, Logseq, Notesnook or Joplin are the ones I know off. No idea how light and performant they are though. I think full word processors like collabora are a lot heavier than a simple text editor.

+1 for Logseq. It's probably not the best app for lightweight markdown notetaking, but it's an incredibly useful app that has now become central to my personal knowledge management. Highly recommended, although the Adroid app is still in beta.

+1 and add to is syncthing to sync the markdown folder to a PC and use Logseq there.

Thanks! I'll have to try Markor in particular.

Real chads install termux and use vim on their device.

In all seriousness, I have only really tried Joplin, it was nice. I see that Markor was recommended, I'll probably try it soon
