But taking quick notes always broke my flow. Switching to another app, creating a new file, picking a category, writing a heading... it’s just too much friction for a random thought or code snippet.</p> <p>I wanted a tool where I could just type, forget it, and move on, knowing it’ll be there when I need it.</p> <p>So, I built <a href="//gojot.app">gojot</a>.</p> <p>It’s designed to be fast, keyboard-friendly, and completely distraction-free. Just open the tab, jot it down, and get back to work.</p> <p>Any feedback on the UX, or features you'd like to see added, is super appreciated!</p> <p><a href="https://media2.dev.to/dynamic/image/width=800%2Cheight=%2Cfit=scale-down%2Cgravity=auto%2Cformat=auto/https%3A%2F%2Fdev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fuploads%2Farticles%2F89xz94sfk4lg5vz8iyxa.gif" class="article-body-image-wrapper"><img src="https://media2.dev.to/dynamic/image/width=800%2Cheight=%2Cfit=scale-down%2Cgravity=auto%2Cformat=auto/https%3A%2F%2Fdev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fuploads%2Farticles%2F89xz94sfk4lg5vz8iyxa.gif" alt=" " width="720" height="406"></a></p> developer writing productivity learning
