Notes

Notes is a note-taking application for the GNOME desktop on Linux. It is designed for creating and keeping short written records such as reminders, ideas, lists, and fragments of information that do not require a full document editor. The application belongs to the desktop note category, with an interface intended to keep notes available as part of a GNOME session.

The project is published by Pierre-Yves Luyten and uses GPL-3.0+, LGPL-3.0, and LGPL-2.0+ licensing. Its stated platform is Linux, and its focus on GNOME makes it most relevant for users of that desktop environment. It is suited to local everyday note organization rather than specialized tasks such as code editing, project management, or long-form publishing.
