🛣️ Roadmap

Jorts is a cute simple and lightweight little notes app, and i wanna keep it this way Top priority is to have the clearest, simplest, most efficient code ever

💝 Donations

On the right you can donate to various contributors:

  • teamcons, the main devs and maintainers behind jorts
  • wpkelso, the author of the modern icon and its Pride variant
  • lains, the initial creator of the app (It was Notejot, now something very different)

💾 Notes Storage

Notes are stored in ~/.var/app/io.github.ellie_commons.jorts/data

You can get it all by entering in a terminal:

cp ~/.var/app/io.github.ellie_commons.jorts/data ~/

"saved_state.json" contains all notes in JSON format. The structure is quite simple, if not pretty.

The app reads from it only during startup (rest of the time it writes in) so you could quite easily swap it up to swap between sets of notes.

ON WINDOWS: It's in:

YourUserFolder \AppData\Local\io.github.ellie_commons.jorts

AppData is a hidden folder. Either you paste the above path in the path bar, from your user folder Or you do a "Show hidden files"
