Product: FromScratch
Price: Free
FromScratch is a simple and smart note-taking application.
- No User Interface, except the text you type.
- Launches instantly.
- Tiny memory footprint.
- Saves automatically.
- Indents automatically.
- Replaces common syntax with symbols, such as arrows.
- Cross-platform and open source. It is available for Linux, Windows and OS X.
FromScratch is a small little app you can keep open all the time and take notes in. You can use it as a task list. A depository of thoughts. A place you store the links you run into while web browsing. Just a bucket to drop random notes into.
Saves automatically, so you never lose the content. At the end of the day, you can transfer what you need to individual files in a text editor. FromScratch is just a place to doodle with words.
FromScratch has no preferences. It uses a font called Fira Code and it has only three keyboard commands:
- ⌃ + Up Arrow: Move current line up.
- ⌃ + Dn Arrow: Move current line dn.
- ⌃ + d: Delete current line
That is it.
I like it.
