NoteChrome

About

NoteChrome is a fast, distraction-free note pad that lives in Chrome's side
panel — open it next to whatever you're reading or building and capture
thoughts without leaving the page.

WORKS OUT OF THE BOX
No account, no sign-up. Notes are stored locally in your browser by default
and the extension works fully offline.

YOUR SERVER, YOUR DATA (optional)
Run the open self-hosted backend and switch to server mode to sync the same
notes across every device — your laptop, desktop, anywhere. Nothing ever
touches a third party. You hold the data and the auth token.

FEATURES
• Markdown editor with a formatting toolbar and live preview
• Task lists, code blocks, blockquotes, headings
• Tags + full-text search
• Link the current page to a note
• Pin important notes to the top
• Themeable — accent color, writing font, and size, synced across devices
• Backup & restore: export/import your notes as JSON or Markdown
• Keyboard shortcut to open the panel anywhere (Ctrl/⌘+Shift+Y)

PRIVACY
The developer runs no central service and collects no analytics. In local
mode your notes never leave your machine; in server mode they go only to the
server you configure. See the privacy policy linked below.
