Hey HN,

Along with a handful of friends, I've been working on a note taking platform for the last couple years. We created a 2 minute pitch of our platform, if you'd prefer to read, maybe you'd want to checkout our README: https://github.com/lockbook/lockbook. If you don't want to do either of those things I'll try to summarize some of our core values:

- everything end to end encrypted

- open formats: markdown and svg

- strong offline support

- everything open source

- native apps where possible

- rust where possible

Some other stuff we're proud of:

- we have a CLI which lets people edit using their favorite text editor: https://blog.lockbook.net/cp/137878891 we're also experimenting with a mounted file system where a CLI falls short (checkout `lockbook fs`).

- we built a markdown editor in egui that fit our needs and embedded it within several of our (native non-egui) clients: https://blog.lockbook.net/cp/136569994

At the moment we have 3 goals:

- grow the community of early adopters who like what we're doing and are interested in giving us continuous feedback as they try to adopt the app.

- find like minded engineers who are looking for open source projects to contribute to.

- increase the stability of the platform

Thanks for your attention ♥.
