Summary

This is a note taking app that allows you to customize the layout the way you want. It supports HTML formatting and retains pasted web page content's format. It works on touch devices too.

It's open source and you can get the source code form https://github.com/yguan/notepad. You can also try it out on the web before installing it (http://yguan.github.io/repos/flexnote/#/notes).

I also packaged this app as a desktop app, and you can get it from https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/flex-note/acndffknklaklnnpjmdbfknnohmikcje.

Warning: If you use "Clear browsing data", please make sure the "Hosted app data" checkbox is unchecked. Otherwise, the app data may be erased.

Known issues:

  1. Newly added note doesn't have focus on the editable field

Upcoming features:

  1. Set the background color of a note
  2. Import and Export of notes
User reviews
Shame, this app could be good. My issue with this is every time I close my browser and open it back up all my notes are scattered in a random order and I need to sort them out each time, and that's really frustrating. Dont download unless you're looking to waste your time tinkering with annoying text boxes scattered everywhere. Please fix as it does show great promise. I would give 5 stars.

Muy buena. Puedes escribir notas para concatenar ideas y moverlas según la necesidad. En una lluvia de ideas funciona excelente!!!
