HelixNotes — Local-First Markdown Notes
helixnotes.com
A local-first markdown note-taking app. Your notes stay on your machine. No cloud, no lock-in.

cross-posted from: https://lemmy.world/post/43147928

I built a note-taking app because the one I wanted didn’t exist. Clean UI, local .md files, no cloud, no account.

Built with Rust + Tauri 2.0 + SvelteKit. Full-text search powered by Tantivy. Graph view, AI writing tools (bring your own key), Obsidian import, version history.

Available for Linux (AppImage, APT, AUR), Windows, and macOS. Source: https://codeberg.org/ArkHost/HelixNotes

    I’d appreciate something like this, but for smartphones. Or, in other words, I’m looking for an Obsidian replacement. So far, I’m satisfied with Obsidian, but I don’t like it being not open source, so things can change any day. Also, to my taste, it’s too bloated. Personally, I need only the couple of functions. Sometimes I think I’d write it myself, maybe. One day. But I’m still hopeful someone else would at least start it :)

      You just described why I built HelixNotes. Clean, simple, open source (AGPL-3.0), no bloat. Desktop is ready, give it a try. Mobile is on the roadmap once the desktop experience is solid.
