How to write an internote, collect internotes into a map, find and keep what other people have published, and run a site. Every guide is one task, so a search lands on an answer rather than a chapter.

#Start here

What Internote isInternotes, maps and sites — and how Studio, Library and Explore divide between them.

Your first internoteFrom an empty account to something on the page.

#Internotes

Creating oneTemplates, tags, lessons, ownership and visibility — what the create dialog asks and why.

The editorVisual and Source, the floating toolbar, the element palette, and how saving works.

PublishingDraft to published, draft changes, unpublishing, and working in bulk.

Publishing from GitHubKeep internotes as .chalk files in a repository: connect it, push to publish, and read the check when a file fails.

#Maps

Making a mapCollecting internotes into a path, and why a map has no Publish button.

Arranging a mapThe canvas, the five layout templates, and what the arrangement is saying.

#Reading

Finding thingsExplore: subjects and subtopics, the four sorts, and the filters that narrow them.

Your libraryBookmarks and their colours, what has been shared with you, and what you have finished.

Sharing and permissionsWhat a link gives away, and how view and edit access are handed out.

#Sites

Joining and contributingGetting into a site, and what changes about your work once you belong to one.

Members, roles and invitesWhat Member, Contributor and Admin can each do, and how invite links are controlled.

Running a siteThe admin area: name and visibility, branding, and what the site’s home page shows.

#Your account

Account and preferencesThe six preference tabs, and getting back in when you cannot sign in.

NotificationsThe six things Internote can tell you about, and how to switch each off.

#Safety

Reporting contentThe Report action, the six reasons, and where a report goes.

#Chalk

Internotes are written in Chalk, and the language has a reference of its own — a page for every construct, the types its attributes accept, and the constraints it assumes but cannot check. You do not need it to start writing: new internotes open in Visual mode, where there is no syntax involved.
