Inkdrop v6-canary.15: Achieved the smoothest auto link insertion ever!

Ajouté : 2026-05-05

[00:00:01]Hey, what's up? It's Takuya here. Welcome back to my channel. I'm excited to announce the new canary version, which is Inkdrop version 6, canary 15.

[00:00:12]It has some exciting new features and improvements. The first one is improved auto-link title insertion.

[00:00:25]As I talked in the previous video, I wanted to improve the auto-link title feature, and it got much better than before.

[00:00:40]I'm really happy with this result. As you can see, when you paste a link from another app, it starts loading the page title automatically.

[00:00:53]It displays an auto-completion menu, and you can choose your preferred link format.

[00:01:03]One of them is with page title. When you select this option, it displays the loading spinner.

[00:01:16]You can submit the selection, and it inserts the link with the page title.

[00:01:23]Even if you submitted this completion option, before finishing loading the page title, it asynchronously keeps loading the page title.

[00:01:41]When finished, it automatically replaces the loading spinner with the formatted link, which is amazing.

[00:01:54]Let me show you the demo.

[00:01:56]Here is the development version. I'd like to paste this link.

[00:02:05]It's loading the page title. I canceled it. Let's try it again.

[00:02:15]I submitted it very quickly before finishing the page load, but it keeps loading and automatically replaces the link format.

[00:02:28]Yeah! This is so cool. You don't have to wait for the app to load the page title, which is amazing.

[00:02:38]I'm really happy with the result. I hope you like it.

[00:02:45]I'd like to see the app not try to interrupt your edit, so you can keep focusing on writing or editing your notes and taking tech notes.

[00:03:01]That's the design. That's the primary focus of the app design.

[00:03:11]Yeah, that's cool.

[00:03:13]The next one is the note sort order button.

[00:03:19]The button used to be here in the previous versions, and now it's been moved to this place.

[00:03:28]You can change the note sort order by clicking this.

[00:03:33]The reason why I did this is because I wanted to check out the current sort order without clicking the button.

[00:03:43]In the older versions, the button was here, and you always had to click the button to check the current sort order.

[00:03:56]It was annoying for me, so that's why I moved it from here to here.

[00:04:03]You don't have to touch anything to check the current sort order, which is great.

[00:04:10]Instead of this button, here we've got a toggle button for the sidebar.

[00:04:17]You can click this button to toggle the sidebar.

[00:04:21]Also, you already have this button to toggle the distraction-free mode, so you can hide and show the sidebar and not list very quickly without remembering the shortcut key.

[00:04:38]By the way, you can also toggle the sidebar by pressing Command-Slash or Control-Slash, or Command-Shift-D or Control-Shift-D to toggle the distraction-free mode.

[00:04:52]Yeah, I'm so happy.

[00:04:56]The next one is a fuzzy matching support for the notebook and tag list menus.

[00:05:03]Which means you can now filter the tags with fuzzy matching algorithm.

[00:05:13]So you don't have to type the exact keyword to filter the tags or notebooks.

[00:05:28]When you want to move the note, here's the dialog for moving the note.

[00:05:36]You can also move the note by pressing M on the note list, and the dialog shows up.

[00:05:44]You can type a keyword, and it's okay if you type incomplete characters, because it now uses the fuzzy matching algorithm.

[00:05:59]So it helps you find the desired item from the list.

[00:06:08]And other improvements, one is to remove the account name from the sidebar.

[00:06:18]So it no longer displays your real name on the sidebar.

[00:06:28]It is not necessary to display all the time, because you can now quickly check the account status on the preferences window.

[00:06:42]So that's why I removed it from the sidebar.

[00:06:45]And I also bumped up Electron to v39.8.7.

[00:06:54]Yeah, that's it.

[00:06:56]So I'd like to talk about introducing the community-made plugins.

[00:07:04]So after publishing the TypeScript definitions for developing plugins, the community becomes active to develop plugins.

[00:07:18]I'm so happy to see the community actively develop new plugins and update existing plugins.

[00:07:28]So I'd like to share some awesome plugins developed by the user community.

[00:07:35]So I want to say thank you so much for creating and maintaining the plugins.

[00:07:42]Shimizu-san has been working so hard to update a lot of plugins.

[00:07:48]As you can see, he has published so many plugins.

[00:07:53]And these are originally for V5, but now they also support version 6, which is so nice.

[00:08:06]So Sidetoc is one of his popular plugins.

[00:08:10]It displays the outline of the current note, so you can switch, you can jump around the sections, which is amazing.

[00:08:25]And he's got a new plugin, which is called link-compact.

[00:08:31]It automatically compacts markdown link URLs when a note is opened and toggles the display with a command.

[00:08:41]Which means, as you can see, if you have a link, which tends to be long if the link has a lot of query parameters, it shrinks it into a single emoji, which looks nice.

[00:09:00]And I'm going to try it.

[00:09:07]So this release note has a lot of links, as you can see.

[00:09:11]And maybe it solves this issue.

[00:09:20]This is the first time I tried this plugin.

[00:09:25]Oh yeah, this is so amazing.

[00:09:33]So you can still edit the link.

[00:09:38]Maybe it would be nice to expand the link when the cursor is on a URL, which helps you edit the link.

[00:09:52]Maybe I'll send a pull request to improve this plugin later.

[00:09:57]Yeah, but this looks so nice. Thank you so much for creating, Shimizu-san.

[00:10:05]And the next one is code-runner, developed by Dieter Reinert.

[00:10:12]Thank you so much.

[00:10:14]So this plugin allows you to run code directly on the preview pane, which looks nice for learning coding, learning programming languages.

[00:10:30]Thank you so much.

[00:10:32]And the next one is copy-as-jira, developed by A13X9.

[00:10:38]Thank you so much.

[00:10:40]It helps you copy the markdown in the Jira syntax.

[00:10:47]Yeah, amazing.

[00:10:49]Right-click on the Inkdrop note and copy its body as Jira wiki markup.

[00:10:56]Yeah, sounds cool.

[00:11:00]Okay, next one is Constellation.

[00:11:04]It's developed by p1n9_d3v.

[00:11:09]Thank you so much.

[00:11:10]It displays... This one is so interesting.

[00:11:15]So this gives you one of the popular features of the connection-oriented note apps.

[00:11:22]So it displays the network of your knowledge stored in your Inkdrop database.

[00:11:29]Yeah, so let's read the description.

[00:11:32]So interactive note graph for Inkdrop.

[00:11:34]Visualize notes as a constellation of links, tags, and notebooks.

[00:11:39]Yeah.

[00:11:40]So this one looks so nice.

[00:11:45]I actually installed it already.

[00:11:47]And let's check it out.

[00:11:50]Yeah.

[00:11:53]And boom.

[00:11:54]So it displays the current outline also.

[00:11:58]And it takes time to generate the graph because I have a lot of notes, like 3,000 notes.

[00:12:07]Yeah.

[00:12:08]So this is amazing.

[00:12:10]Oh, you can zoom in.

[00:12:12]And yeah, migrate.

[00:12:18]So you can actually explore your notes in the graph view.

[00:12:22]That's amazing.

[00:12:25]Okay.

[00:12:26]And next one is note-tabs by Dieter Reinert.

[00:12:34]Yeah.

[00:12:35]So note-tabs gives you a browser-like note tab.

[00:12:39]And yeah, it looks like this.

[00:12:41]So you can quickly jump around from recently opened notes, which is nice.

[00:12:48]If you prefer having tabs on top of the note editor, this plugin might help your workflow.

[00:13:00]So please check it out.

[00:13:02]Yeah.

[00:13:03]Thank you so much for creating these awesome plugins.

[00:13:06]Yeah.

[00:13:07]So let's talk about the next version.

[00:13:09]I'm going to work on adding AI integration.

[00:13:14]And I've been researching which libraries would be nice to use.

[00:13:20]And I'm considering to use AI SDK, which is by Vercel.

[00:13:27]And it wraps each provider API, and it helps you integrate so many providers.

[00:13:38]And yeah, I'd like to check it out.

[00:13:41]So maybe I think I'll add the Anthropic and OpenAI compatible providers first.

[00:13:52]Because I have to understand what's necessary to implement, what's necessary to use for features.

[00:14:05]I haven't decided the exact requirements of the features that I want to build.

[00:14:13]So I'd like to go with the simple setup.

[00:14:20]Yeah.

[00:14:21]It looks good.

[00:14:22]So yeah.

[00:14:26]I'm so excited.

[00:14:29]And I'm happy to see that the community becomes active again to create more plugins.

[00:14:37]I can't wait to release it officially.

[00:14:40]You can download the canary version from here, and I'll put the link down in the description below.

[00:14:47]So please try it.

[00:14:50]Thank you for watching, and have a productive day.
