Solitude

A minimalist web-app for focused writing and note-taking. Currently in early stages of development.

Features

Currently implemented

• Rich (but constrained) text editing
  • Headings, bold, italics, lists, links, blockquotes etc.
  • Markdown shortcuts e.g. #Heading, **emphasis** are supported
  • @mention other pages to create dynamic links
• Autosaving with save status and 'last updated' indicators
• Tree structure for page organisation, similar to Notion
• Search for pages from the sidebar
• Word count
• Attractive UI including light and dark mode
• Export a page as Markdown

On the roadmap

• Embedded images
• Offline support, including syncing and conflict-handling
• Backups and revision control
• Basic insights on the Home page such as number of pages or total word count
• Workspaces or projects, letting you have multiple collections of pages

Uses

• Vite for React bundling
• Tauri for offline client bundling
• Typescript for (almost) everything
• Tiptap as text editor backend
• TailwindCSS for styling
• Prisma for database queries

Currently, uses a SQLite database via Prisma, but this can be swapped out for any database that Prisma supports with minimal changes.

Development

Install dependencies:

npm install

Set up the database:

npx prisma generate
npx prisma db push

Then, run the API server and frontend:

npm run server
npm run dev
