GitNotēs: Notes & Todos + Git

xaventra

About this app

GitNotēs — Notes that live in your GitHub repos.

No database. No vendor lock-in. Your notes are real .md, .org, and .norg files in a Git repository — owned by you, editable anywhere, synced like code.

Why GitNotēs
• Every save is a real commit with a clear message
• Sync via GitHub API or full local clone
• Conflict detection when devices race
• Pull-to-refresh, auto-sync every minute, offline queue

Your formats
• Markdown with GFM rendering, tables, code blocks, math
• Org-mode with checkboxes and properties
• Neorg with modern @document.meta blocks
• Switch between rendered view, raw text, and checklists

Everything inside
• Notes with tags, colors, pins
• Todos with priorities, deadlines, swipe-to-delete
• Journals auto-tagged by date
• Templates for repeating note shapes
• Canvases (Beta) — visual notes in plain text
• Browse, rename, move files across all repos

AI (optional)
• Apple Intelligence on supported devices
• On-device Llama — nothing leaves your phone
• Bring your own OpenAI-compatible endpoint
• Disable entirely; all features work without it
