Notes app

Why another note app?

For taking technical notes I wanted a note taking app that is...

• Simple like Apple notes (but has code syntax highlighting)
• Block-based editor like Notion
• Works offline (Like Obsidian)
• Uses tags instead of a folder structure
  • Don't have to worry about categorizing your notes in a hierarchy, just create the note.
  • To categorize the notes add a tag (Also will help you find it)
• Works on Windows, Linux or Mac
• Self hostable
• Privacy respecting (no telemetry, no selling data)
• Secure
• Highly configurable
• Free and open-source

Roadmap

• More blocks
• Light mode (currently only dark mode)
• Settings page
• AI Integration
• Password protected notes
• Graph view (like Obsidian)
• Plugins (Extensible)
• Desktop app
• Mobile app
• Support more architectures
