I have no button command and ctrl doesn't replace it. I can't create a new note by pressing ctrl + N
I want to be able to use keyboard shortcuts.
I can confirm the same problem on OSX (v10.13.6)
We'll launch it on the next release.

0.1.2 has been released already, and in Ubuntu 19.10 shortcuts still do not work.

Moreover, I have no button for creating a new note now
Ctrl+N, does not work for me on Windows 10. There is no way for me to create a new note.. :)
@raelb You could duplicate a note, and then rename.
I don't understand. I do not have any notes..
The problem is described in here. I'm really sorry that the UX is really bad.
For now you can create a note when you select a folder. The button is hidden and the shortcut doesn't work when you select all note list or note list by a tag.
We'll fix this problem quite soon.
Partially fixed in #295.
I'm going to back to this issue again to make note creation work always.
This is actually fixed in #295
