i have no idea if its electron based but check this out → Nota - Pro notes app designed for local Markdown files.

I've started using it in combination with Nota, which I recently replaced Obsidian with. I use this for my collection of academic notes, which I prefer to keep local-first. Nota looks much nicer, and is much more suited to handling a large collection. Obsidian has far more features, but I don't need most of them anyway, and hopefully Nota will continue to evolve.

Our other product Nota is also free for users who can't afford it. One of our goals is to make it free for those who can't afford it. However, we also should pay our bills. I can promise you that if we earn enough from a product we will make it more and more affordable for users — we don't aim for big earnings.

We've been building macOS apps for the past 8 years. Our main app is Nota.

Nota (Mac, iOS) (beta)

main-thread-scheduling is a 3kb library that can make your app responsive and fast in just a single line of code. Nota uses it for its super fast search and Flux.ai uses it for their advanced 3D circuits editor. Also, it doesn't have any competition. Usage:

I'm the founder of a beautiful Markdown editor. Actually two:

Nota - https://nota.md. It's a notes app but a lot of our users use it as a markdown editor. Nota is quite powerful as a markdown editor. It has a lot of smartness built into it.

Caret - https://caret.io. We started with this - a beautiful Markdown editor. We aren't implementing new features for it but if you are on Windows or Linux it might be worth trying out. We still have new users coming in.

A common feature of the two is that they both are pleasant to use. We've put a lot of hard work in the UX (which is also hard to market and one of the reasons why you probably haven't heard about us).

I tried obsidian but felt it had too many gears and knobs and spent too many times fiddling with them. I fell back on this app which is based on local markdown storage but takes it up a notch.

The fact that everything is in plain text files on my computer is very important for me and future proofed.

Noteplan [1] has stuck for at least 3 years now. I like that in addition to old-school notes pages, each day has its own page. I capture notes and to-dos when I'm in meetings, and it has a separate view that will aggregate all your to-dos onto the same screen, no matter what day they appeared on. That might be available in many note-taking apps now, but when I converted to Noteplan, I couldn't find that feature anywhere. I really wanted something that combined to-dos and notes into the same software.

Note-taking apps are a really crowded space and there are die-hards in every camp. It sounds trite, but I'm convinced the best one is the one that sticks and that you actually use.

NotePlan + Session

You might have a look at NotePlan.

I use https://noteplan.co/

It is a planner/note-taking app that connects to your calendar and you can drag and drop "tasks" onto certain days, create notes that link to certain meetings, and time-block your days well in advance.

While exploring similar apps in the market (I recently got an iPhone XS), I stumbled upon two competitors that caught my attention: Agenda (https://agenda.com/) and Noteplan (https://noteplan.co/). Both these apps offer some remarkable features that, if integrated into UpNote, could take it to the next level. Allow me to share my thoughts and ignite a productive discussion within our user community.
