HelixNotes — Local-First Markdown Notes
helixnotes.com
A local-first markdown note-taking app. Your notes stay on your machine. No cloud, no lock-in.

I built a note-taking app because the one I wanted didn’t exist. Clean UI, local .md files, no cloud, no account.

Built with Rust + Tauri 2.0 + SvelteKit. Full-text search powered by Tantivy. Graph view, AI writing tools (bring your own key), Obsidian import, version history.

Available for Linux (AppImage, APT, AUR), Windows, and macOS. Source: https://codeberg.org/ArkHost/HelixNotes

    I don’t know what is typical, but when I use AI locally I’ve been running llama-cpp with models grabbed from HF (ex. QwenCoder). Then in my VS code plugin (RooCode) I use the “OpenAI compatible” option to point it at my local server.

    Not sure how hard that is to get working, but my hope is that “OpenAI Compatible” helps.
