Show HN: LS Note – Plain text notes in local storage
lsnote.websiteHello HN!
I'd like to share a simple web app where you can make quick plain text edits or take temporary notes.
It's offline first. Notes are stored in browser's local storage.
The source code can be found here: https://github.com/starikovs/ls-note/
I’d love to get your thoughts and ideas for improvement! I created this tool first of all for myself, 2 main reasons why I need it: 1. I often create temporary notes in my main Notes app, which quickly becomes cluttered with temp stuff 2. I sometimes struggle with editing plain text without any formatting, especially on mobile devices I hope others find it useful as well! What happens when I clear browser history, data, cookies etc? There are good privacy and security reasons to do so. If local storage is cleared, the notes will be deleted as well. I mainly use this tool for temporary notes, for notes I only need for the day, for example. It's also handy for quickly copy-pasting something, editing it in plain text, and copying it again. Previously, I used my main Notes app or my messenger for these tasks.
