A sticky notes app for Linux that doesn't look like it escaped from 2006
A sticky notes app for Linux (and macOS) that doesn't look like it escaped from a 2006 GNOME panel.

- Markdown bodies and dashed link arrows between notes

- Keyboard shortcuts for everything: Ctrl+N new note, Ctrl+X cut, Ctrl+Z undo, Ctrl+, preferences
What it does NOT do
- Sync to the cloud
- Collaborate in real time
- Send notifications
- Try to be more than sticky notes
Where your notes live
Locally on your device, in a plain JSON file you can read with cat. No accounts, no telemetry, no cloud. The only network call is a daily check for app updates.
