Notecat

a minimal, local-first note taking app in your browser

Usage

You can use Notecat by going here.

You can also build and host it yourself:

git clone https://github.com/noodleCats/notecat.git
cd notecat
bun install
bun run build
# build in dist/, can be served from a static host like Neocities

Features

• Create and edit plain text notes
• Lightweight (<35 kB gzip)
• Local-first - notes are stored in the browser via IndexedDB

Why does this exist

Notecat was built to be a simple and easy to use app, that is able to load fast and run on any machine with a browser on it.

This app is small (less than 3,000 lines of code). Most of the maintenance work focuses on bugfixes and essential note-taking app features.
