Quick capture, anywhere
Press ⌘⇧Space in any app. A small window floats on top, you type the thought, and it's saved. You stay in the app you were using.

New Item
Everything in one place.
Nothing in the way.
◇
Flow canvas
Connect your items to build out your grand idea, and see how all your notes link together in one view.
▥
Boards
Turn any set of items into a kanban board grouped by state or by a property. Drag cards between columns.
Views that organize themselves
Build a view from a few simple conditions: type, state, property, text or date. Notes show up in every view they match, without being moved or copied, and the views stay up to date on their own.
⌕
Search everything
Full-text search across every note and todo, and a fuzzy file switcher that opens what you need in a few keystrokes.
↔
Connected notes
Link items to each other. Linked documents show up under an item, and you can edit them right there.
#
Properties and dates
Add properties and start and end dates to items, then filter and group by them in any view.
◐
Workspaces
Keep separate workspaces for different areas. Each has its own icon, color, tabs, font and layout.
Your data stays on your device
donote stores everything in a local database. You don't need an account and it works offline. Export one document as Markdown, a whole workspace as a zip, or a full backup, whenever you want.
- Markdown
- Workspace .zip
- Full backup
- Canvas PNG
Fast from the keyboard.
The three shortcuts you'll use most.
⌘⇧Space Quick capture from any app
⌘⇧P Command palette
⌘⇧F Search everything
Made for the love of note-taking.
donote is built by one person, in spare time, because I wanted a notes app that works the way I think. It's in beta, so expect a few rough edges, and expect it to get better with every release.
