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

Note taking App, AI in the front page... I don't think you understand the point of taking notes.

AI is optional, disabled by default, and doesn't even show in the UI unless you enable it. The app works fully offline with zero AI involvement.
