I was inspired by CherryTree to make my own note taking app. Please play around with this application, I welcome your feedback and issues.

Not that I claim Treedome to be any better than CherryTree. I'm trying my best to solve some of the pain points when using CherryTree, according to my daily usage.

I made an AUR PKGBUILD for it so it's easier to install on Arch

[–] tengkuizdihar@discuss.online 13 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Omg that was quick, thank you! Please make an issue in the repo so I won't forgot to add it to installation.md

[–] alycat@lemmy.blahaj.zone 13 points 2 years ago

Done! I've added some more issues as well

Not looking for a new note-taking app but givin you a boost since it’s always great to have new projects in the mix. Keep up the good work!

This is super cool!

I took a look, as an avid Obsidian user interested in an open-source tool, and saw that one key difference is your emphasis on encrypted notes, which I suspect is part of why notes are stored in SQLite rather than as plain markdown files.

I think that might be something to call out in docs somewhere, since Obsidian (and Logseq) are popular note-taking apps, as one key feature difference between your app and those.

[–] tengkuizdihar@discuss.online 8 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Yes, it's stored as a binary object instead of markdown because of that! The changes I made to migrate the whole backend from ReDB to Sqlite is still very new, thanks for reminding me to mention it in the docs!

Can we use Syncthing to sync that sqlite file?

[–] tengkuizdihar@discuss.online 9 points 2 years ago (1 children)

You can use anything you want to sync it, seriously! The application only reads a single file with .note extension.

[–] TCB13@lemmy.world 7 points 2 years ago

Cool! Keep it that way.

I've been searching for a program that would allow me to save my conversations with ChatGPT and other LLM models for later reference. Would this program enable me to save conversations with titles and easily search through them in the future? The ability to tag conversations and then search for specific tags would also be quite useful.

[–] tengkuizdihar@discuss.online 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

This program doesn't have a tagging system, but you can definitely add keywords onto the title for now and quick search it using ctrl+shift+p!

As someone who currently uses a note-taking app with tags, I'd highly recommended adding that as a feature if it's not out of scope. I couldn't imagine going back to taking notes without tags. It makes organization so much simpler.

[–] tengkuizdihar@discuss.online 2 points 2 years ago

Never say never, the only reason why tag is not on the roadmap yet is because I couldnt find a way to add it without loading all of the tags into memory.

The encryption part is important after all.

A note taking app with waifus? Seems necessary.

[–] PeWu@lemmy.ml 9 points 2 years ago (2 children)

I commend you for picture choosed

[–] tengkuizdihar@discuss.online 9 points 2 years ago

mfw no glasses gf that forgot hers every so often

[–] Mr_Blott@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

To be honest that exact choice is going to put off the vast majority of potential users

[–] tengkuizdihar@discuss.online 2 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Thats okay, my target audience is myself and a bit more. I realized I cant please everyone, but at least some will love it.

But then again, its for demo purposes, obviously you can insert any picture you want.

[–] w00t@lemy.lol 7 points 2 years ago

Mie-san approves ( ͡⎚ ω ͡⎚)

I could not find Windows binaries. Could you provide them with your releases?

[–] tengkuizdihar@discuss.online 2 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

As of right now i havent built the application on windows yet. But its definitely on the horizon now that people requests it lol

[–] DM_Gold@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 2 years ago

I use Notion for organizing my DnD campaign. Love how this is looking so far. I'll add a feature request for linking to other pages, and implementation of a table in each note. Thanks for your work!

[–] Merlin@lemm.ee 1 points 2 years ago

Thanks for this :)

I’m am a big fan of rust and tauri. Nice to see it being used here. I’ll definitely give this a try :)

[–] ForestOrca@kbin.social 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)
