Pro Combination of different types of writing in one note

Cons
Con Only syncs to CodeCollector.net
Con Not enough languages out of the box
Although languages can be added with tmbundle, there could have been more languages out of the box for more convenience.
Con You can't edit specific files, they must be in your notebook
Con No iOS apps for editing, only a viewer available
I'd LOVE to edit and create quiver notes on my iPad!
Con The line in focus shows a border around it which is distracting
The line in focus in the editor shows a rounded rectangular border around it, which is unappealing and distracting.
Con Much more than a simple Markdown editor
Since it's more like a note-taking app (and a note-taking app built for developers) than a Markdown editor, it may be a little excessive to use it only for its Markdown editing features.
