This is a simple UI to manage notes on your desktop. While there are many Notes taking Apps out there, I didn't find anything simple enough on the desktop.

Features:

  • Simple UI. Fire up the App and start writing plain text notes
  • Cross Platform. Written with JavaFX and runs on Windows,Mac and Linux
  • Attach arbitrary files to a Note
  • Include notes to each attachment
  • Note Text, Attachment file names and attachment notes are all searchable
  • You do not need Java installed on your desktop to run it (See Below)

Internals:

It's written in Kotlin. Uses Java FX, JDK11 and Lucene internally. In order to build it, you'd need JDK 11 installed. Build Steps:

  • Install JDK 11 in a directory (eg c:\jdk11)
  • set JAVA_HOME=c:\jdk11
  • set PATH=%JAVA_HOME%/bin;%PATH%
  • gradlew runtime
  • the runnable image is built in build\image

Running the Image:

  • Once built, simply execute run-cmd.bat from Windows command line OR goto download prebuilt zip file and follow instruction to download and run the prebuilt zip file.
