* Running on http://127.0.0.1:5000/ (Press CTRL+C to quit)

and open in your browser http://127.0.0.1:5000/edit/test.md (you can add this to your notes <a href="http://127.0.0.1:5000/edit/test.md">edit</a>.

@app.route('/edit/<note_title>')
def edit(note_title):

        os.system('open ../notes/' + note_title)
