Fish Notes

Beautiful, local-first Markdown notes — no cloud

A Bear-like note-taking app built with React + Electron - tangqianyu/Fish-Notes

Top comment

👋 Hey Product Hunt!

I'm the maker of Fish Notes — a clean, Bear-style Markdown note-taking app I built because I wanted something fast, local-first, and beautiful to write in, without an account, a subscription, or my notes living on someone else's server.

What it does:

✍️ Real-time Markdown editor (CodeMirror 6) with MD / Preview / Split views — write in source, see it rendered live
🏷️ Nested tags (#work/projects/ideas) to organize without folders
🔍 Instant full-text search powered by SQLite FTS5
🔒 End-to-end encryption (AES-256-GCM) for private notes — your password never leaves your device
🎨 4 themes (light / dark / solarized / anime) + a clean three-pane layout
🖼️ Drag, paste, or insert images right into your notes
💯 100% local — your notes are stored on your machine in plain SQLite. No cloud, no account, no tracking.
Tech stack (for the curious): Electron + React + TypeScript + CodeMirror 6 + better-sqlite3. Available for macOS and Windows.

I built this solo and would genuinely love your feedback — what would make this your daily note-taking app? What's missing? I'm reading every comment today. 🙏

Thanks for checking it out!
