Nolio

Nolio is a free, open-source notes app that stores encrypted notes locally, without cloud storage, third-party servers, or telemetry. Each note is encrypted with AES-256-GCM; key derivation uses Argon2id or a 600,000-iteration PBKDF2 fallback. The master password is essential: the maker says notes cannot be recovered without it and there is no password reset. The vault can lock after a configurable idle period or through Cmd/Ctrl + Shift + L. Its editor supports headings, lists, task lists, quotes, code blocks, callouts, tables, images, and links. Pasted Markdown is converted into rich blocks, and slash commands insert blocks from the keyboard. Notes can be organized into nested pages with unlimited subpages, alongside Favorites, Recent, All Notes, Trash, and a command palette. Desktop users can open resizable sticky-note windows and pin them above other windows. Encrypted backups can be exported to a chosen location, and imports verify the backup password before writing data. Nolio runs in a browser and on Windows, macOS, Linux, and Android.
