An extensible, lightweight desktop note client for multiple back-ends

 

AlephNote is a lightweight note taking desktop app usable with multiple back-ends:

Standard Note

With the StandardNotePlugin your notes get synced with a Standard File server. Your notes are locally encrypted and cannot be read from anyone but you

Simplenote

With the SimpleNotePlugin you can sync your notes with the free SimpleNote online service

Nextcloud/owncloud notes

The NextcloudPlugin syncs your notes with the notes app running on you own private Nextcloud/Owncloud instance

Local

You can also simply not use a remote back-end and either use the HeadlessPlugin (don't sync the notes anywhere) or the FilesystemPlugin (sync the notes with another folder).

Installation

Simply download the latest release and extract it where you want (all settings etc are portable). By default the program automatically searches for new versions and downloads them. If there is demand for an installer I could make one, but personally I like portable programs more.
