thanks for sharing this, I've been looking for something like this for awhile. I've just been using wrangler and having a bunch of docs open in the side window. I also tried using scribbleton, but hate how big everything is. This is great.
I commented a while ago with the list of note apps I was considering to replace Evernote. Might save you some time: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=13642527

But these terms make some amount of intuitive sense on YouTube or Spotify. I don't have to know anything about YouTube or Spotify other than they deal with video clips and music to have a decent idea what a 'track', 'video', 'channel', 'playlist' might mean. These terms don't translate that well to 'notes', though.
Kobble can be used for much more than just notes. You organize 'tracks', which are more like projects. Tracks can contain notes, but also more meaningful content. Anything you can create with markdown (plus links, etc.)

Shameless plug time again... * My summer project (2016): http://public.docs.xstatic.site * The pitch goes something like this: | Docs is a simple, fast and easy to use, web based document editor. It generates static (but editable) HTML files that can than be easily shared and printed. Like Google Docs inside an AWS S3 bucket. * More info in this document: http://docs.xstatic.site/markdown_db86ac26-f232-4400-a544-d5..…
I think a Show HN is the one time it's bad form to shamelessly plug your own product.
More seriously - Why so?
I think that:
1. It's on topic.
2. It's a project not a product. I ain't sellin anything.
3. There is no thunder to steal. Usually, more comments, more votes, more rain for the show.
4. Shameless has to be shameless.
5. It adds to the discussion. See, it just did...
> Kobble is the only app available where you own all of your data. What? I find that highly unlikely. In what way do I not "own" the texts I write in–for example–Apple's Notes.app? And what is even meant by "own"? Even for something like Facebook, I'm pretty sure that I still own the copyright for texts I write in their app.
By 'own', we mean that no data is stored on our servers. The goal is privacy and to protect your data.
Curious as to what makes this "beautiful".
I registered localnotes.io or something a couple of years ago to make a notes app (just a side list of note files and then a markdown editor) that would persist to local storage and could be synced to private gists and images would store as base64 encoded files under that gist. I got a proof of concept working but was too lazy to integrate with GitHub and canned it. Working on something more fun now and learning vue.…

Exactly. I see very little difference whether my notes are stored in a github repo or a google drive folder. In either case they are under "my" account but I don't think I would say that I really "own" the data because either service could hypothetically be gone tomorrow.
That's precisely why we use GitHub. It's unlikely to be gone tomorrow. No data is stored on our servers. In fact, we don't even see it. The data is transferred directly from your browser to GitHub.
