ScribblePad is a minimalist, in-browser note-taking app designed for quick and private note capture. Focus on your ideas without distractions. Enjoy the freedom of a standalone, self-contained note that remains entirely yours.
ScribblePad is designed for effortless use. Follow these simple steps to get started:
- Obtain the Code: Copy the entire contents of the
src/app.min.html
file. - Create a Bookmarklet:
- Access your browser's bookmark manager.
- Create a new bookmark.
- Give it a name like "ScribblePad".
- Paste the copied code into the URL field.
- Start Taking Notes: Click on the newly created bookmarklet to open a new tab with your ScribblePad.
That's it! You're ready to start jotting down your thoughts and ideas.
- Ultimate Privacy: Your notes are stored solely within your browser, ensuring complete control over your data. No external servers or third-party involvement.
- Instant Accessibility: Access your notes from any device with a web browser using a simple bookmarklet.
- Isolated Notes: Each note exists independently in its own browser tab, preventing accidental mixing or loss of content.
- Rapid Auto-Save: Your notes are automatically saved every 5 seconds, guaranteeing data preservation even in unexpected browser closures.
- Reliable Restoration: Notes are reliably restored upon page reload or after browser crashes, thanks to robust data recovery mechanisms.
- Customization: Choose between light and dark themes to match your preference or environment.
- Browser Compatibility: Currently optimized for Chrome and Firefox.
- Standalone Notes: Notes are isolated to individual browser sessions and cannot be synced across devices.
- Basic Formatting: ScribblePad focuses on plain text simplicity, offering no advanced formatting options.
- No Version History: While browser history can be used to track changes (by searching for your note ID), ScribblePad does not provide built-in version control.
If you encounter any issues with ScribblePad, try the following steps:
- Clear Browser Cache and Data: Sometimes, browser cache or data can interfere with web applications. Clearing your browser's cache and data might resolve the problem.
- Check Browser Compatibility: ScribblePad is primarily designed for Chrome and Firefox. Ensure you're using a supported browser.
- Verify Code Integrity: Double-check that you have copied the entire contents correctly.
- Use the lite version of the app: Employing the
src/app.version.lite.min.html
file instead ofsrc/app.min.html
may be advantageous if your browser faces limitations with long URLs (approximately 2,000 characters). This smaller file size can mitigate potential issues arising from URL length restrictions.
