#### A secure and minimalist sticky note application.

Floaties is a distraction-free note-taking application designed for users who prioritize privacy and a clean workspace. Built with a local-first philosophy, it ensures your data remains under your absolute control at all times.

**WHY CHOOSE FLOATIES?**

**Uncompromising Privacy:** Every note is secured using professional-grade AES-256 encryption. Your local vault is protected by Argon2id, a memory-hard key derivation function.

**Zero Cloud Policy:** Your data never leaves your machine. There are no accounts to create, no tracking scripts, and no "phoning home" to remote servers.

**Minimalist UI:** Modern, frameless windows built to provide a sleek experience that floats over your workflow without cluttering your screen.

**Smart Persistence:** The application automatically remembers your window positions, sizes, and states, so your workspace is exactly how you left it.

**Atomic Storage:** Powered by a thread-safe SQLite engine to ensure your data is saved reliably and instantly.

**INDEPENDENT SOFTWARE**

Floaties is a solo-developed project built by a hobbyist for the community. It is free to use, ad-free, and respects your digital sovereignty.

If you find Floaties useful for your workflow, consider supporting the project via the donation link in the sidebar. Your support directly fuels further development, bug fixes, and new features.

**COMPATIBILITY AND PORTABILITY**

**Linux Optimized:** This Snap is fine-tuned for Ubuntu and other distributions using Wayland or X11.

**Cross-Platform Sync:** Backups and vault files are fully compatible between Linux and Windows. You can seamlessly import and export your data across different operating systems.

**Windows Version:** Available via the source repository (and coming soon to the Microsoft Store).

**INSTALLATION**

To install via terminal, use the following command:

`sudo snap install floaties`

## Enable snaps on Manjaro Linux and install Floaties

Snaps are applications packaged with all their dependencies to run on all popular Linux distributions from a single build. They update automatically and roll back gracefully.

Snaps are discoverable and installable from the [Snap Store](https://snapcraft.io/store), an app store with an audience of millions.

### Enable snapd

Snapd can be installed from Manjaro’s Add/Remove Software application (Pamac), found in the launch menu. From the application, search for *snapd*, select the result, and click Apply.

Alternatively, *snapd* can be installed from the command line:

```
sudo pacman -S snapd
```

Once installed, the *systemd* unit that manages the main snap communication socket needs to be enabled:

```
sudo systemctl enable --now snapd.socket
```

To enable *classic* snap support, enter the following to create a symbolic link between `/var/lib/snapd/snap` and `/snap`:

```
sudo ln -s /var/lib/snapd/snap /snap
```

Either log out and back in again, or restart your system, to ensure snap’s paths are updated correctly.

### Install Floaties

To install Floaties, simply use the following command:

```
sudo snap install floaties
