Briefly, it is a notebook app for your personal data. You can use it to store passwords, your diary or any kind of text in general.

It's an extension of an opensource cli command I built a long time ago https://github.com/rorokimdim/stash. My primary motivations for Text are still the same:

1. Needs to have user side encryption

All encryption related code and file format is opensource and can be validated independently. I hope to opensource the rest of the code in the future.

2. Needs to be versatile to work with user's existing tools and workflow

You can access all of its features via command-line tools and scripts. You can use your favorite text editor to edit everything -- I hope to make the integration more seamless in the future with editor specific plugins.

It has other features like sharing, web publishing and multi-device access, which I think are important but not essential. It is also plain-text only -- which is a trade-off I'm making to keep things simple.

Do you think it is a useful product for you personally? Do you have any ideas or suggestions? You can send me an email at [email protected] if you prefer that instead of commenting here.
