#FlatNote ###A Simple, Stupid Notetaking Application That relies on the user to manage data storage.

Do you use EverNote? What about turtl.io? Maybe you use paperwork. I've used every cloud note taking service, some are gone. I wanted a program that was portable, cross platform, and didn't require an internet connection. I also wanted a humble set of features. Finally, i wanted to be in charge of where my data went and how it sync'd.

So here is my architecture for the given problem:

java = portable and cross platform

flat txt files = simple and small for portability

standard folder structure = no need for a database again portable and light.

Features

1. Writes Notes/Notebooks Done!

2. Reads Notes Done!

3. Sees Directory Structure 80%

4. Overwrite Protection Done!

5. Windows Friendly 99%! (no bugs i have found)

6. link highlighting

7. Tagging

8. Picture file linking
