Project notes

We recommend creating stacks for active projects so that you can capture all related notes to that project in one place. The notes will be timestamped and ordered chronologically by default.

For recommendations on Todos in Stashpad, see Simple & organized todos.

Project setup

Create your project stack

To start, create a stack for your current project. Drag it to the left sidebar for quick access.

Add project notes

As you think of ideas, todos, or gather information, you can jot down ideas to this project space. Just click on the Project and jot it down.

By organizing your notes into the right Project area as you write them, your notes will be easy to find later without any further organizing work.

Note that you can bring up Stashpad at any time using cmdshift0 on Mac and ctrl shift0 on Windows/Linux. You can also customize this keybinding.
