No more manually formatting links! With preview link, pasting a URL into your note now brings up a quick selection menu, letting you choose how your link appears.
You can keep it as a simple URL, turn it into a clickable text link reference, generate a preview card, or—if it’s a HackMD paragraph link—cite it directly. This update makes pasting links easier, faster, and more intuitive.
Collaboration just got easier with Show Edit History. Now, you can dive deep into the changes of specific lines without manually reviewing every version. Quickly understand the evolution of your content with a timeline of edits, including details like timestamps, editors, and modifications. This granular insight streamlines collaboration and ensures transparency.
Need to revert a change? Select any previous edit to restore it effortlessly. This feature saves time and keeps your workflow smooth, especially in collaborative environments.
We used to do it with tags, now you’ve got folders. Folders are perfect for keeping your notes neatly organized in a clean hierarchy. Make them your own by picking the perfect emoji icon that speaks to you.
Need to move stuff around? Just grab multiple notes and drag them to their new folder home. Perfect timing for some spring cleaning to kick off the new year with a fresh start!

We’ve revamped the text selection experience on HackMD with the addition of the Floating Toolbar. This toolbar is positioned horizontally above the text selected for better functionality. Hover over icons to get a quick description. Access all your tools in a compact design. On mobile, this toolbar is always within reach at the bottom of your screen.
With the new Copy Link feature, you can now share a specific paragraph or text section from your notes effortlessly. Whether in View mode or Edit mode, you can easily copy a link. Then, when someone clicks the link, they will be taken directly to the highlighted section within the note, making collaboration and reference easier than ever.
Thanks to Brian Chou, Jackiempty, judyshyu, and William Chang for their help with usability testing.
