Even if there are lots of note creation utilities available on the macOS platform, there is still enough space for apps designed for this specific purpose just as The Archive clearly manages to show.

Moreover, The Archive is a streamlined application created with the explicit mission of helping you take notes, finding any of them with extreme ease and organize them with the help of a built-in tagging engine.

The Archive's user interface features a text editing area on the right side, a list of all your notes to its left, and a panel featuring all your saved searches to help you quickly pinpoint all the records containing a particular search term.

The Archive also provides you with all the tools you need to organize your notes into collections with the help of the already mentioned tag system. Thus, to add a note to a specific tag you just have to put a # (hash) symbol before the word representing the tag.

To be more exact, while using The Archive you can add any information to its note database, as long as it is in plain text form, and consequently make it simple to open and alter it using any other app which comes with support for editing plain text files.

Also, given that the app comes with inbuilt support for the Markdown markup language, this makes it very easy to format the text according to the specific needs of the content you're entering into The Archive.

You can also use The Archive as a text editor with a focus on helping you concentrate on the text you're currently writing by removing the notes list and the saved searches panel, as well as enabling the typewriter mode.

The Archive features themes too, providing you with the means to customize the editor's look to perfectly match your desktop theme as well as your favorite color scheme.

Throughout the testing period, The Archive performed flawlessly allowing us to make notes on a wide range of subjects, organizing them with ease using tags, and formatting them rapidly using Markdown.

If you're looking for a fast and plain text-based note taking utility for your Mac with a clean and elegant interface, The Archive comes with the feature set needed for the lead role.
