Planting Your First Note

Standard Garden makes publishing beautiful content as simple as pasting text.

Anonymous Notes (No Account)

The fastest way to share:

1. Visit standard.garden
2. You’ll see a large textarea (like Pastebin)
3. Paste or type your content
4. Click “Plant”
5. Your URL is automatically copied to clipboard
6. Share it anywhere

The 7-Day Sprout: Anonymous notes are ephemeral drafts designed to let ideas settle without pressure. If you want to keep a note permanently, you don’t even need to plan ahead: simply click “Claim Note” at the bottom of your published note.

Adopting Your Note & Creating an Account

Want to anchor your thoughts permanently into a sovereign garden?

1. Click “Claim Note” on any ephemeral note you created, or open the Command Palette (::login or click the menu).
2. Enter your email (or use instant Passkey / TouchID).
3. Confirm the 6-digit code.
4. Your ephemeral note is immediately adopted into your permanent garden at standard.garden/@username/note-title.

Writing in Markdown

Standard Garden uses Markdown for formatting:

## A heading

**Bold text**, _italic text_ and `inline code`.

- List item

# Your Content

Themes are built on the six classical Temperaments — international, documentation, humanist, editorial, academic, gallery — plus a growing catalog of curated variations (forest, swiss, paper, eink, …). No theme set? The system chooses well by default.
