I was inspired by CherryTree to make my own note taking app. Please play around with this application, I welcome your feedback and issues.

Not that I claim Treedome to be any better than CherryTree. I’m trying my best to solve some of the pain points when using CherryTree, according to my daily usage.

    This is super cool!

    I took a look, as an avid Obsidian user interested in an open-source tool, and saw that one key difference is your emphasis on encrypted notes, which I suspect is part of why notes are stored in SQLite rather than as plain markdown files.

    I think that might be something to call out in docs somewhere, since Obsidian (and Logseq) are popular note-taking apps, as one key feature difference between your app and those.

      To be honest that exact choice is going to put off the vast majority of potential users

        Thats okay, my target audience is myself and a bit more. I realized I cant please everyone, but at least some will love it.

        But then again, its for demo purposes, obviously you can insert any picture you want.

      This program doesn’t have a tagging system, but you can definitely add keywords onto the title for now and quick search it using ctrl+shift+p!

        As someone who currently uses a note-taking app with tags, I’d highly recommended adding that as a feature if it’s not out of scope. I couldn’t imagine going back to taking notes without tags. It makes organization so much simpler.

          Never say never, the only reason why tag is not on the roadmap yet is because I couldnt find a way to add it without loading all of the tags into memory.

          The encryption part is important after all.

    I use Obsidian regularly but one issue I have is that image handling is not easy.

    I love the Canvas plugin… Maybe in the future, you could do something like that too?

    Edit: Is it available on Windows?

      The closest I saw was Trilium Notes to Obsidian.

      There is Logseq too but the file management is just too different.

      Just saw Obisidian Canvas, wow. it’s probably another whole application inside of Treedome, so Doing it ourselves would be a tremendous challenge. Definitely need the help of the community on this one, or at least we need to find a NPM package that has a similar function to it. Draw.io maybe?

      I haven’t tried it on windows, but I think it’s possible to build it yourself. I have tried it in Linux and Mac only for now.

    I could not find Windows binaries. Could you provide them with your releases?

    I use Notion for organizing my DnD campaign. Love how this is looking so far. I’ll add a feature request for linking to other pages, and implementation of a table in each note. Thanks for your work!

      Don’t forget to check the help section of the escape menu. For example, you can use ctrl+shift+p to quickly access your notes by title.
