Beaver Notes is a local-first, markdown-native note-taking application for macOS, Windows, Linux, Android, and iOS. It emphasizes privacy with no telemetry or accounts, offering folders, tags, note linking, locked notes, and flexible sync options including self-hosted servers.
Use cases
- take private notes locally without an account
- sync notes across devices via my own server or cloud storage
- write markdown notes offline
- keep a journal that no one else can read
- replace proprietary note apps with an open-source alternative
- organize notes with folders, tags, and links
- lock sensitive notes with a password
When to choose
- you want local-first notes with no telemetry or vendor lock-in
- you need cross-platform support including mobile
- you prefer markdown files you fully control
- you want self-hosted or BYO-cloud sync options
When to avoid
- you need real-time collaborative editing
- you rely on deep third-party plugin ecosystems like Obsidian's
- you want built-in AI features or cloud handwriting/OCR
