Want to record your thoughts and memories without leaving the command line?
Notorious is available for installation on your Linux distribution of choice via Flathub, the Flatpak app store and also available in the AUR as notorious-git. While Notorious does n’t have a built-in cloud sync feature, you can choose a folder to store your notes in. So, if you want to “sync” your notes between systems, you can use a third party cloud service. What if you forget them? Can you display the cheat sheet by pressing ctrl+ in the active application? Notorious boasts a minimalist interface, and support for keyboard shortcuts. You don’t need to use your mouse to create, edit, search or manage your notes. You can do whatever you need using keyboard shortcuts. You can write your notes in plain text (hence you can style them however you like), but the app also supports Markdown syntax highlighting (not enabled by default). Auto save enabled.

You can also switch between light and dark modes change the size, size and color of the page switch between different backgrounds use multi-touch gestures to zoom in/out clear the sheet import Export.īecause Rnote is a GTK4 application, it takes full advantage of the many new widgets and user interface elements offered by the latest updates. Simple things like rounded menu items, sidebars that can be moved around, popups, animations in the user interface look amazing. It comes with a number of basic tools, including a marker with various brush styles, a pen, shapes, an eraser, and a couple of selection tools that make it easy to select an area to move, resize, or clone it. I have no doubt that in the future, if the developer continues to work on it, it will become a worthy competitor. At the moment, it lacks a few features that its older brother has, such as the ability to enter text from the keyboard, which makes it a little less ready to work. In terms of functionality, you could describe Rnote as an alternative Xournal++.
The application is primarily designed for freehand drawing, annotating and marking up documents and images. The key benefit is that everything written and drawn is vector-based, allowing the content to be edited or modified later.
I’ve spent about 20 minutes playing with it (albeit with a mouse as primary input) and it’s really quite polished considering it’s far from a fully functional application. If you have a laptop with a stylus or touchscreen and are using GNOME Shell, you should definitely give it a try!ĭeveloper Rnote calls it “a simple note-taking app written in Rust and GTK4”. Rnote is a really impressive freehand note-taking app written in Rust and GTK4. Organizing notes is very easy thanks to the ability to drag and drop notes. This way you can reorder the entries in the sidebar or drag and drop notes from one notebook to another. You can also move notes using the context menu.Ĭurrently, you can’t add tags or tags to your notes or filter them, but the app boasts full-text search, so you’ll be able to find exactly what you’ve written. In the app settings, you can choose the font for your notes and change where your saved notes are stored (theoretically, you can sync them via the cloud between devices). If you’re using an OLED device, there’s also an option to turn on “true” black mode (it’s also only active when dark mode is set globally in GNOME).
