minote

A minimal, offline-first note-taking app that runs entirely in your browser.

• Single self-contained file — everything in index.html (no build step, no dependencies)
• Markdown editing with live preview, slash commands, and a built-in renderer
• Folders, tags, pinning, archive/trash for organization
• Resizable panel — drag the divider between the note list and editor to resize; width persists across sessions
• Command palette — Ctrl+K to quickly open notes, folders, or toggle settings
• Focus mode — distraction-free typewriter view with paragraph highlighting
• Plain-text mode — toggle txt in the editor header to write raw markdown without rendering
• Image paste — paste images directly into notes (stored as data URLs in IndexedDB)
• Dropbox sync — optional sync through your own Dropbox App key (client-side OAuth2 PKCE, no backend)
• PWA — installable, works offline with a service worker
• Dark/light theme with 8 accent colours
• Export/import full backup as JSON

Usage

Open index.html in a browser. Notes are persisted in IndexedDB and never leave your device unless you sync or export.
