Opus

Opus is a minimal note-taking application.

It aims to be a mix between a text-editor and code-editor. It reads and writes .note files from your native file system. This means it works well with tools like Dropbox for syncing files across your devices.

Much like a code-editor, Opus opens folders and allows you to edit the files inside. You can have multiple windows open, each with a different folder.

Features

  • 🖋 Editing: Supports rich text editing with all the features you'd expect.
  • 📄 Uses Files: Uses tangible files in JSON format, not inaccessible databases.
  • 🌙 Dark Mode: Includes a dark mode for late night writing.
  • ⚙️ Customizable: The sidebar and footer can be hidden for a more focused experience.
  • 📂 Multiple Projects: Opus supports opening multiple folders at once.
  • ✨ Simple: Opus has only the features you need.

Installation

You can download the latest macOS binary from releases.

Alternatively, you can run Opus locally from the command line:

$ git clone https://github.com/pacocoursey/Opus.git
$ cd opus
$ npm install
$ npm start
