Show HN: Your no non-sense offline Notepad
- amitmerchant 9y agoHey guys, This is a full fledge PWA app which works perfectly fine for your offline usage. You can check the app in action over here: https://twitter.com/amit_merchant/status/756876111959601152 https://twitter.com/amit_merchant/status/756876111959601152
- helb 9y agoSimilar tool (textarea + localstorage) on HN few days ago: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=14285740 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=14285740 (Show HN: Nute – A super simple writing app)
- nightcracker 9y agoThis is literally just a text file. Stored on your computer. Only accessible through your browser with a textarea editor. A text file. I'm at a loss for words...
- amitmerchant 9y agoYeah. I agree it's pretty simple in terms of the usability but hey, this can be really handy in case you just want to take down quick notes and forget about it.
- bbcbasic 9y agoSorry I'm a bit slow on the uptake but what point are you making? Are you saying it has no utility?
- PatentTroll 9y agoWell, it certainly has less utility than notepad.exe
- bbcbasic 9y agonotepad.exe doesn't work on Android, IPhone, Linux, Mac, ...

- kinduff 9y agoI don't see how this web app solves a problem in an efficient way. The only "opportunity" I see it's to avoid downloading an app for notes to your phone, but it usually comes with one pre-installed. In desktop, well, I don't think I have to explain myself here.
- bbcbasic 9y agoNice idea. With it being source is a nice basis for new devs to learn. I don't think you can guarantee that the data will be certainly persisted forever though right?
- amitmerchant 9y agoThanks for the kind words. Yes, the data will be there as long as there won't be localstorage data wiped up for this particular app.
