Notes is an open source and cross-platform note-taking app that is both beautiful and powerful.

Website: get-notes.com Our vision for the future on our Wiki.

Features Overview

  • Native app (written in C++ with Qt).
  • Fast with a low memory footprint.
  • Fully open source and cross-platform (Linux, macOS, Windows).
  • Completely private - tracks nothing.
  • Beautiful and sleek looking, yet still powerful.
  • Folders and tags. Organize your ideas hierarchically using nested folders and universally using tags.
  • Markdown Support. Format text without lifting your hands from the keyboard.
  • Different themes. Switch between Light, Dark, and Sepia.
  • Feed View. Select multiple notes to see them all one after another in the editor.
  • Always runs in the background. Use the hotkey Win+Shift+N to summon Notes. Ctrl+N for macOS.
  • Keyboard shortcuts. Meant to have the option to be used solely with a keyboard (but more work needs to be done there).
  • What feature will you contribute?

Keyboard shortcuts

All keyboard shortcuts are documented here.

Support the project

If you use Notes daily, consider donating money so I can pay programmers to develop new features and fix bugs. I partner with Github Sponsors and Patreon to receive contributions. You can also put a bounty on specific issues using Bountysource. I currently make a living from ads on the website, but I'd like to stop with that.

Building from source

We have specific instructions for Windows, macOS and Linux (and we also provide build options).
