TRUST SIGNALS
Key highlights of the appA rich text gadget for Jira dashboards: notes, links and team context that actually stay saved
Edit in place, no configuration screen
Click into the note and type. There is no separate configure dialog to open, get stuck in, or have silently do nothing. Formatting, lists, and links are all there in the gadget itself.
Saves explicitly, and verifies the save
Content is stored per gadget in Forge storage, written only when you save, and read back to confirm the write landed before the app reports success. Refreshing the dashboard does not reset it.
Follows your Jira theme
Built on Atlassian design tokens, so the note matches light and dark mode instead of fighting them. Links open in a real browser tab through the Forge router, not trapped inside the gadget frame.
More details
Atlassian Labs' Rich Text Gadget has over 7,400 installs and a 3.3 star rating, and the reviews say the same handful of things: the configure screen does nothing, updates wipe the content, the font changed, links open inside the iframe, there is no dark mode.
Notation is built against those complaints. There is no configuration screen: editing happens inside the gadget itself, gated by the dashboard's real write permission, so editors edit and viewers read. Content is stored per gadget in Forge hosted storage, written only when you save, and read back to confirm the write landed before the app reports success. Refreshing the dashboard does not reset it.
The editor gives you headings, lists, links, quotes, code and images, with a clean system sans stack. Links open through the Forge router in a proper browser tab. Atlassian design tokens throughout mean the note follows your Jira theme rather than fighting it. Zero external network egress.
