Feature Request: Allow custom template for note export
This is a big ask, but submitting just in case this would be valuable to other users.
The Issue
Currently, there is no way to customize the way markdown notes are generated for each note in Google Keep.
Proposed Solution
Using a templating engine like Jinja, users could be able to specify their own Jinja template to use for generating markdown notes.
For example:
Below is the default export format:
- I'd like to find system for (X)
- Is a hot dog a sandwich?
- Add questions to document

Using a custom template, the user could have their markdown notes formatted in the following way if they prefer having the note metadata stored in markdown frontmatter:
---
created: 2024-01-15T05:40:34
updated: 2024-01-15T05:40:34
note-url: [https://keep.google.com/#NOTE/1705297229969.1234682776](https://keep.google.com/#NOTE/1705297229969.1234682776)
---
- I'd like to find system for (X)
- Is a hot dog a sandwich?
- Add questions to document
The template file for the above would look something like:
---
created: {{ created_at }}
updated: {{ updated_at }}
note-url: [{{ note_url }}]({{ note_url }})
---
{{ note_content }}
Interesting idea! Now that Obsidian supports front-matter that makes some sense! I'll take a look at it,
