Keep quick notes close to your work. Sidebar Quick Notes is a lightweight, multi-page plain-text notepad for Visual Studio Code.
Features
Multiple pages: Keep separate notes and move between them with previous and next controls.
Quick navigation: Jump directly to a note from the page selector.
Custom titles: Give each page a title; untitled pages are labeled Untitled.
Automatic saving: Changes are saved as you type, with no save button required.
Remembers your notes: Notes are restored from VS Code extension storage when the extension is opened again.
Using the notepad
Open the Sidebar Quick Notes view in VS Code.
Select a page from the dropdown, or use the previous and next buttons to navigate.
Use + to add a page.
Edit the title and note text. Changes save automatically.
The editor stores plain text; Markdown is not rendered inside a note.
Storage
Notes are stored using VS Code's extension-wide globalState, rather than in your project folder. This implementation does not configure cloud or cross-device sync, so notes should be treated as local to your VS Code installation/profile.
