This saved me almost 8GB’s of space on the SSD. To begin with I took a leaf out of Patrick Rhone’s book and completed a fresh install, excluding the additional languages and the majority of iLife applications (only keeping iTunes to manage music and podcasts). Taking inspiration from my favourite podcast, I’m going to discuss why the Air is more than enough Mac for me, focusing on how I’ve set it up the apps I’ve installed modifications I’ve made and what it’s like using and writing on Apple’s smallest laptop. It is almost three months since I took delivery of a Refurbished 11″ MacBook Air and I can confidently state that it is the best laptop I have ever used – lightweight but robust, elegantly minimal, powerful and fast.

It’s almost a year since I first shared an insight into my note making and writing processes. And that was it, my notes were synced across both devices. To complete the setup, in Epistle, I changed the Dropbox folder it was syncing with to the “NV” folder I had created.
Next, I synced the folder with Dropbox using MacDropAny. Then I created a folder called “NV” and moved all my notes to this folder. In short I switched to saving notes in nvALT as plain text files. Re-reading the post it was clear that I could do the same with nvALT, Dropbox and Epistle.

Fortunately, I remembered reading a blog post demonstrating how to sync your notes in nvALT with Dropbox and Plain Text for iPad. After a couple of clicks, I had Epistle working in exactly the same way as nvALT. Also, you can select from serif, sans-serif and monospace fonts. Note creation involves a single click and they can be organised alphabetically or by date. It has an elegant and minimal user interface. Which means I can write fully formatted blog posts on my phone, using the Markdown syntax. Like nvALT, Epistle has built-in Markdown support. Being a very specific search I quickly came across Epistle by Matteo Villa.

If you are interested in learning Markdown quickly, this video by Eddie Smith is definitely worth watching:Ī couple of months into learning Markdown I decided that I should find a text editor for my Android phone that supported it. After adding a title and tags all I have to do is hit publish. NvALT has Markdown support built in meaning that I can write a blog post using the syntax, quickly open up a HTML preview to check that everything looks as it should, then simply copy/paste the HTML source code directly into the WordPress browser-based editor. It works by converting plain text, formatted with the Markdown syntax, in to valid HTML.

Markdown is both a software tool and a simple syntax, created by John Gruber, that allows you to maintain your focus on writing.
Over the last three months I have been learning to write using Markdown. This was not the worst workflow but it was not ideal. To avoid writing out lots of HTML, I would write posts in nvALT and then add links, formatting and images in the WordPress browser-based editor. What I prefer, is to write in plain text. While learning HTML syntax has helped me to build and customise this blog, it is not particularly easy to use when writing blog posts.

Therefore, I felt a brief update was in order. There have, however, been a few changes to both the way I write blog posts and the way I create and sync notes with my Android phone. NvALT, my preferred text editor, has been the constant tool in my writing and note making setup for more than a year now.
