alsonotes

alsonotes is a cross-platform, privacy-focused note-taking application designed to organize text notes, checklists, and multimedia in a single workspace. It emphasizes offline-first storage with optional cloud synchronization and supports markdown formatting.

alsonotes is described as an open-source project, with a modular architecture that enables client-side rendering and plugin-based extensions. Data is stored locally by default, with optional synchronization through secure, encrypted channels if the user connects a supported service.

Features include notebooks and tags for organization, comprehensive search, attachments (images, audio, files), rich text and markdown support, cross-device sync, end-to-end encryption for notes, offline mode, and export/import in standard formats such as Markdown and JSON.

Platforms include Windows, macOS, Linux, iOS, and Android, with a web interface and a lightweight footprint intended for devices with limited resources.

History and development: The project is maintained by a community of contributors focusing on privacy and data portability. It has seen work on core editors, encryption modules, and extension ecosystems, while real-time collaboration remains an optional goal rather than a core feature.
