No cloud, no tracking, just your notes on your server.</p> <p>I spent a long time looking for a simple, self-hosted note-taking application. I tested several, but I was never satisfied: either too advanced, with too many features, or too simplistic, lacking folder management, backups, etc.</p> <p>So I decided to create this application myself, with Claude's help. I'm happy with it, and I hope it will be useful to others. I think its main strengths are its simplicity, its lightweight design, and its note versioning system.</p> <p>Secure - Simple - SelfHosted</p> <p>Why you should try:<br> Clean<br> Simple<br> No AI<br> Notes Versionning<br> Share functionnality<br> Export notes<br> Easy to Backup</p> <p>You will find a live demo to test :)</p> <p><a href="https://notesme.cloud/" rel="noopener noreferrer">https://notesme.cloud/</a></p> <p>Regards !</p> opensource privacy productivity showdev
