This is great! I totally agree with the concept of just taking notes in sequence. Notes are a record of moments in your life. The act of taking notes quickly, without distraction, and moving on, is so important.
Organizing notes in any other way besides just a sequence (especially heirarchical folders, which is how most apps organize) gets cumbersome.
It becomes a combination of analysis paralyasis (which category best fits this note I'm about to take? What if it fits into multiple categories? Too bad, it can only live in one folder) and a quagmire of trying to keep the data organized and findable in the future.
It's a lot easier to just keep a log of every note and then add just enough tagging that you can find it later when you need it.
I was fed up with all the other note apps out there, and created one that accomplishes all the goals I have personally always wanted. Those goals are - make note creation front and center, work natively on every major platform, sync instantly to all my devices, and have a very powerful filtering and full-text search engine for retrieval.
Please sign up if you are interested, it is currently in alpha. https://notebrook.app https://notebrook.app (ALPHA2020) gets you started in the browser right away. Create an account and sync your notes anywhere (native apps on every platform will be available soon).

- gnur 6y agoLooks really nice so far. I've been working on exactly the same thing actually, but it isn't nearly as polished as notebrook (yet?). The only problem right now is that I cannot find a save button anywhere and it also is not autosaving?
- lukevp 6y agognur, Thank you for the kind words! While you are writing a draft note in the editor, the notes are auto saved in your browser every second. As soon as you submit the note (either by hitting enter 3 times at the end of the note, or ctrl+enter on desktop) it’s marked up with metadata and saved in your browser. If you have an account, it will also sync to the cloud and back down to any other signed in devices (usually within a second or less). If you’ve taken notes in a browser and forgot to sign in, you can sign up or sign in at any time and all the notes locally on that device will get pushed to your account. Let me know if you have any other questions! We will be adding a “submit” button as well as walkthrough in the future to make this process clearer.
