YAML Headers and Metadata
Describe your feature request Please add YAML metadata support. To quote this Markdown Crash Course:
A YAML header contains YAML arguments, such as “title”, “author”, and “output”, demarcated by three dashes (---) on either end.
Here's a screenshot of how this looks in Sublime Text, which is an effective implementation:

Ideally, this support would include a few significant features:
- Basic metadata syntax highlighting
- File naming that reflects the Title field
- Metadata is ignored when previewing the rendered Markdown
The iA Writer implementation is a good model, and supports some additional inline variables, which is slick:
iA Writer supports metadata at the beginning of documents. You can use it store important information about your documents, hidden from Preview. Metadata must be separated from the rest of the document by three dashes. You can use the metadata in the text by putting it in brackets adding a % sign.
Additional context I believe this would apply to all OS and devices.
Please refer also to the very insightful https://github.com/notaapp/talk/issues/86
Another vote for Frontmatter support. I'm looking at migrating from Obsidian and it would be great to be able to make use of existing Frontmatter in my notes.
Release available for download here https://github.com/glushchenko/fsnotes/releases/tag/6.0.0
I also ask you to vote on Prouct Hunt and Reddit, it will help in spreading:

Thanks!
Looks like tags and created/modified are not supported. Example:
---
title: My Title
tags:
- tag1
- tag2
- tag3
