When loading a lot of notes on mobile, you can noticeably feel the speedup. In theory, you can load as many notes as possible without any delay, because the current note list has been changed from rendering all notes to only rendering notes in the visible range.

iOS 26.1 added a Tinted option for Liquid Glass. Apple is now creating problems that don't exist and then fixing them. It's practically KPI-driven development.

The sidebar has been changed from floating to flat, so it will be more convenient if you like to open the sidebar and check the outline while writing. (thanks to a friend's feedback)

In the daily note list, when there are more notes, the list becomes less meaningful. Maybe I will add an option to switch to the calendar view later.

Today, when I was reviewing a weekly report I read two years ago, there was an external link in the article. When I clicked it, I found that the page had already reached 404. Suddenly, I realized that I have encountered this kind of thing too many times.

I'm currently quite happy with the dark theme of Simark, but I always feel like something is missing with the white theme. I hope I can figure it out soon.

Simark has two small improvements. One is that you can now sign in with an Apple account, and the second is that you can set a notebook as a daily note.

It turns out that creating native modules for Electron is not that difficult. I successfully called Swift code, which opened up a lot of possibilities.

The advantage of using an old phone to run and test your application is that you can find some performance bottlenecks in time, and then the optimization experience gained after improvement can be fed back to the desktop application.

I'm doing my best to minimize Simark's memory usage and optimize its running speed. If you were among the early users of Simark, you might have noticed how much faster it is now with every click opening a note. My goal is to deliver the smoothest experience possible.

When I was recently improving the performance of my application, I discovered a very efficient and useful native js API that is very useful for lazy loading list resources.
