Yesterday, I had a simple need—I wanted a quick way to jot down thoughts without the hassle of creating new notes or organizing folders. Instead of searching for an existing solution, I built one myself. That's how NoteUX was born!

It’s a minimalist, distraction-free note-taking space with multiple scratch pads, so you can quickly type and switch between notes without any extra steps. No sign-ups, no clutter—just an instant writing experience.

Supports Fullscreen Mode, Dark Mode and Download notes.

What do you guys think?

What I really miss right now is a chrome extension that replaces the new tab page with a note taking space.

I used to use an extension called papier that had a simple interface, just the right amount of configurability and a beautiful design (particularly good color schemes). The extension got removed because of its incompatibility with the new manifest V3.

The current alternatives are either too involved with too much configuration options (i.e. distractions) and not very attractive, minimalist designs.

With your app, you're almost there. If you can get the correct balance right, you could fill the gap in that niche.

Text editor is already invented but nice try.

Wow, I used to use Papier all the time. I sort of forgot about it when I migrated from Chrome to Firefox and didn't really find a good alternative, but man that plugin was legitimately a huge part of my life for a while. I'm sad to heard it's going away, it was an absolutely genius idea
