Import Google Keep notes as you would Evernote?

I'm not familiar with how Google Keep stores notes, but I'm definitely open for adding support for this.

If someone wants to help with this I'll be happy to consider a PR.

Time permitting, I'll look into this. Google Keep can export your notes using Google Takeout and from there it is a simple conversion from HTML to Markdown.

If you can export them to HTML then converting them to Markdown should be easy, I actually already coded this in enex-dump: https://github.com/fabiospampinato/enex-dump/blob/master/src/content.js#L39

Maybe I should add support for importing html files directly 🤔

Import from HTML notes is tracked here notable/notable#94

It looks like converting Keep's format to Markdown will require some special logic, as they are not just exporting content and metadata but the entire note (including styling etc.) .

Using the tool that google recommends the notes can be converted to Evernote format after being exported with Google takeout, and then Notable can import them.
