What it does

Crossnote is a local-first web application for reading and writing Markdown notes. Notes remain plain Markdown files stored in the user's browser or local folders, rather than being held behind a dedicated server or account. The documented workflow centers on creating, editing, and viewing notebook content in a browser.

The application supports offline operation and direct synchronization with any Git repository through in-browser Git. Its repository describes a privacy-oriented, self-hostable approach, while the current project is being rebuilt after the original backend was shut down. The supplied documentation does not describe multimedia capture, web clipping, advanced search, templates, tasks, calendar links, or collaborative editing.
