I wanted a place where I could write down my thoughts without them being stored in the cloud or connected to an account (notes, onenote, evernote, docs, paper, gist, etc). I don't really like terminal text editors, notepad, or IDEs for writing, so I made this very simple notepad. It's a <body> html tag with the contenteditable attribute making it editable, and some <style>.
To save a note just store it on disk (cmd/ctrl+s). To add images, drag and drop them onto the text area. Remove the contenteditable attribute from <body>, save, and voila, you now have a static lightweight blog post ready to be published! Formatting can be a bit wonky but should work in some browsers (cmd/ctrl+b/i/u). Copy+pasting formatted text can potentially break things a bit.
The two colors are from Solarized. Feel free to download the file and update style/markup to your preference.
Some ideas/variations:
Dark theme: https://jjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjj.github.io/new-note/dark.html
Serif: https://jjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjj.github.io/new-note/serif.html
HN theme: https://jjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjj.github.io/new-note/hn.html
With heading: https://jjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjj.github.io/new-note/with-heading...
