Open a single file in just nvUltra editor
Completed
For instance, Apple Notes and Bear to this day allow you to open a note in a single window, without the navigation bar when you double click the note. It can be nice to have a single clean window for a note you work with. Further I also search and open Markdown notes with applications such DEVONthink, Spotlight and Alfred. I'm not sure which default application to use for opening the Markdown notes, currently it's just Visual Studio Code. If I could, I'd probably set the nvUltra editor as the default application for opening the Markdown files, so I don't have a different editor when navigating to the file from outside of nvUltra. My use case wouldn't probably require things such as save dialogs, just the ability to quickly open a Markdown file in any location without the notes folder/navigation/search thing. Or should I just rather look at something like Ulysses or MultiMarkdown Composer for default Markdown editing application for single files?

nvUltra is designed for handling folders of files, not single files. For this, you can use any text editor you like (I prefer MultiMarkdown Composer of course, but I'm biased... ;)
The editor in nvUltra is very similar to that in Composer. After additional testing in nvUltra, and once nvUltra 1.0 is shipped, I'll migrate Composer to use the exact same codebase. My goal is to have the same editing experience in the apps I use the most. That will include sharing a lot of the same settings (e.g. Themes, Expansion dictionaries, etc.). In addition, Composer offers more advanced functionality, such as an interactive table of contents and the ability to work with OPML/iThoughts files
To add the ability to edit single files in nvUltra would require a lot of redundant work and maintenance, when alternatives already exist.
