Markdown Journal
Markdown Journal is a simple journal that uses Dropbox as back end storage and saves your entries as Markdown files. You are in full control of your journal. All the entries are stored in your personal Dropbox forever. If at some point you decide to stop using Markdown Journal you get to keep all your entries. There is no export function, because your work is always going to be in your Dropbox, as plain text files. You don't need to sign up. If you have a Dropbox account you can hit Write and begin to take notes immediately. If you haven't logged in in a while Markdown Journal will ask to connect with your Dropbox account. A new file is started each month. You can edit any of these files directly with a text editor if you wish. You can delete or rename them at any time. Markdown Journal won't care and will continue working regardless of what you do with the files. When the entry is saved to your Dropbox folder it retains that same Markdown formatting.

Jots
Jots is a developer‑friendly journaling app designed for logging ideas, errors, solutions, and insights to boost problem‑solving and track growth. It helps developers “rubber‑duck” their thoughts to debug faster, document pull‑request backstories so future-you and your team understand why refactors happened, and log debugging steps to avoid repeating the same searches. Jots supports organizing thoughts and tagging important notes, helps track progress, and captures side‑project insights all in one place. It’s built to help developers measure their journey, prep for promotions or interviews by showcasing achievements, and reduce repetitive Googling by saving learnings in a personal, searchable journal. It is open source and free, encouraging early adopters to shape its features. It includes an evolving roadmap with tools like an AI chatbot for journaling and career coaching, search functionality, data export, and mood‑tracker charts.
