Crossnote App
An interesting markdown note taking application
Crossnote is a Progressive Web Application built as a markdown-focused note reader and editor that works both offline and online, giving users a flexible platform for writing, organizing, and synchronizing notes. It distinguishes itself by supporting markdown editing with a rich set of formatting options, and by enabling integration with version control systems like git for syncing notebooks in arbitrary repositories. Users can add, edit, and manage markdown documents in the browser, and because it uses modern web technologies, the app caches itself and local data to work seamlessly when a network connection is unavailable. While the backend server that used to support hosted functionality is no longer maintained, the core frontend still offers a slick note-taking experience. Crossnote’s design takes inspiration from tools like markdown preview extensions and collaborative editors. -

The public demo stores data only in browser local storage and does not use tracking or analytics. Users can download their notes as Markdown files in a ZIP archive. The repository also contains an alternate self-hosted Node and Express version that can synchronize notes to a private GitHub repository. The application is built primarily with TypeScript, React, Redux, CodeMirror, Node, Express, Jest, and Cypress. -

Everpad
Evernote client well integrated with linux desktop
Everpad is a desktop integration layer that brings Evernote notes directly into the Linux environment, especially Ubuntu-based desktops. It runs a background service that syncs with your Evernote account and exposes your notes through an indicator applet and a Unity lens/search integration. The goal is to make Evernote feel like a native part of the desktop, so you can search, open, edit, and create notes without jumping to the web interface. It also supports note attachments, notebooks, and tags, so you can organize content in the same way you do on official Evernote clients. Because it plugs into the desktop search, you can surface notes alongside local files for faster retrieval. It was created to fill the gap for Linux users who didn’t have an official Evernote client but still wanted a smooth, native-like experience. -
