I built a note-taking app because the one I wanted didn’t exist. Clean UI, local .md files, no cloud, no account.
Built with Rust + Tauri 2.0 + SvelteKit. Full-text search powered by Tantivy. Graph view, AI writing tools (bring your own key), Obsidian import, version history.
Available for Linux (AppImage, APT, AUR), Windows, and macOS. Source: https://codeberg.org/ArkHost/HelixNotes
I found it buggy and unfinished, plus a “That branch is unmaintained, use this fork” situation, so…nope.
Oh, so your experience with Trilium is at least a year old. In the meantime the original dev popped out of their hiatus to formally hand over the project (and the rights over the original repository) to the newly formed community, which has been very active (porting to typescript, internationalisation, porting of the UI to reactive components, full rewrite of the UI, new collections feature, new note types, new doc, new homepage, some LLM APIs, etc).
It’s still an opensource project run by volunteers on a best-effort basis, but it punches way above its weight-class.
