Bangle.io

Bangle.io is a modern web based note taking platform.

You own your notes

• Local: Modify notes right from your computer. Think Notion, but local only.

• No data lock-in: bangle stores your notes in a human readable Markdown format.

Not your usual note taking app

• WYSIWYG: Even though we save things in Markdown format, Bangle will enrich your eyes with rich text formatting.

• Modern rich text editor: Bangle uses its sister project bangle.dev which unlocks us to build a powerful editor like Notion or Dropbox paper and support real time collaboration.

• Extensibility: Even though it's a web app it was built ground up to be extended by awesome extensions. (We have bunch of community extensions coming out soon.)

Portability at its core

• No Electron: :heart: for web and speed, thats it.

• Performant: Throw thousands of notes at it and Bangle will chug along fine. (Try opening a heavy project like 10,000 Markdown Files.)

Usage

Head to https://bangle.io to use the app.

Development

• pnpm install to install

• pnpm start to start a development instance on localhost:5173

For parallel worktrees, run eval "$(node scripts/dev-ports.js --env)" first to give dev, preview, Storybook, and Playwright servers deterministic ports for that worktree.
