PrivaNote is a Next.js application with TailwindCSS to make it look pretty. The editor is a reasonably customised Slate instance. Setting up these components to play nicely is a breeze thanks to modern tooling.
After scaffolding our application we needed to ensure it's offline first. That means we should be able to use it without an internet connection and without Portabella. For this we leveraged the localForage library. It tries to use IndexedDB and then falls back to LocalStorage if the browser doesn't have it.
PrivaNote is open source so please take a look at the source code if anything is unclear. We've also released a Chrome extension and a Firefox addon to help you take notes as seamlessly as possible.
We took a lot of inspiration for our editor from one of the examples the slate-plugins library provides.
