Why Git Notebook

Readable a century
from now.

Stop migrating from one notes app to the next. Tools come and go. Your writing should not be trapped in someone else's rich-text format.

The tool is temporary.
Your words should remain yours.
01

Plain text ages well

Every note is an ordinary .md file. Markdown adds structure without taking away the simplicity of plain text.

02

Your repository. Your data.

Your notes live in your private GitHub repository, and you can keep a complete copy on any computer at any time.

03

Direct to GitHub

There is no notes server in between. Your device connects to GitHub, and your token stays in the iOS Keychain.
