Leave with files you understand
When you want a long-term vault, Browser Notes exports text notes as clean Markdown with YAML frontmatter (including tags and starred state when present). Images can stay inlined so a single file is self-contained.
Export one note from the download menu, or export everything from the backup menu as a ZIP — or write straight into an Obsidian vault folder in Chromium browsers.
Local-first to vault-first
Use Browser Notes for fast capture in the browser; use Obsidian when you want a durable, portable filesystem of notes. Export is the bridge — not a forced sync account.
