ORIGIN

Why I Built It

Was tired of shifting tabs or having shared tabs and improper categorization or bloat, wanted something fast and easy to note my bug patches, feature implementation requests etc.

Introduction

Hello there -

It's Open Source

DoIT is an open-source tool. I felt like maybe it would help others who just don't wish to bother paying for yet another tool and just wanted a super simple quick note taker that's just there when they need it.

Future Plans

For now I just needed the tool hence I made it, however there are plans for a few more features eventually. You could send me a mail / dm in X or create a report in Github, I'll check it out

ENVIRONMENT

No Cloud. No Auth.

DoIT does not maintain cloud databases or remote user authentication systems. Every note you create compiles and saves instantly as an autonomous Markdown (.md) text file inside a custom directory path of your choice, which can be modified seamlessly via your local Settings panel.

SOURCE

GitHub

If you wish to see the repo consisting of the source files, here it is.
