## Author’s Notes:

The preview is intended to collect feedback, report bugs and glitches. As well as helping me come up with a list of items that you want me to put into settings (like what part of the UI you want to customize etc.) For more info and issue reporting, please use Github [issues](https://github.com/JasonStein/Notepads/issues).

On the other hand, you might noticed that I work for Microsoft. However, Notepads is just my personal side project and I do it for fun and for good. I do not work for Windows team, nor do I work for any Microsoft’s UX/App team. I am not expert on creating Windows apps either. I learned how to code UWP as soon as I started this project which is like only 2-3 weeks back (Today’s date: 06/01/2019). So don’t put too much hope on me or treat it as a project sponsored by Microsoft.

## Special Thanks:

* [Yi Zhou](http://zhouyiwork.com/) - App icon designer, Notepads App Icon was inspired by the new icon for Windows Terminal.
