GitJournal 1.85.2

GitJournal is a note-taking and journaling application designed with a focus on privacy and data portability. It utilizes standardized Markdown + YAML header format or plaintext to store notes, housed in a Git Repository of your selection such as GitHub, GitLab, Gitea, Gogs, or any custom provider.

Key Features:

• Offline-First - Access all notes offline
• No account required
• Organize notes with folders
• Open-source / Free Software / FOSS
• Easily extendable and integratable with other Git tools
• Suitable for managing Hugo, Jekyll, or Gatsby websites
• No advertisements

There is no need for importing or exporting notes as users retain continuous control over their data. While apps may fluctuate in availability, your notes will persist.

Git was selected as the backend due to the ease of self-hosting a Git server compared to other software options. Furthermore, the abundance of commercial Git providers allows users to select their trusted data host. While encryption is not currently supported for notes, the development team is actively working on implementing this feature.
