A one-page space to collect your thoughts and revisit them for reflection. No sign-up, no sync. Choose your mood, add a tag, and write. The data is securely stored locally in your browser using IndexedDB and can be exported whenever needed.

I was looking for a minimalistic reflection app — something light and clean. No need for an account, no subscriptions, no affirmations or advice. Just a place to write things down as they appear in my head. Plus, it feels safer knowing my reflections aren’t uploaded anywhere. I couldn’t find anything simple enough, so I decided to create it myself over a weekend. Pure HTML/JS/CSS combined with the browser’s local IndexedDB. In the end, it took a weekend plus a couple of late evenings, but I’m glad it’s complete enough.

It's features very easy to use.it's a minimalist space for capturing thoughts without all the extra clutter.

I appreciate the thoughtful design. Everything is stored securely in the browser and the mood tags add a nice touch to track my reflections.

I am happy with the simplicity. No need for accounts or syncing just a quiet space for reflection exactly as it should be.

I think this tool is a great idea, super helpful for anyone needing a quick, private space to jot down their thoughts, Maybe it needs a bit more polishing but love how it's all offline and secure, good job on creating it from scratch.

So many minimalistic note apps out there, like Simplenote or Standard Notes, and this feels like a weekend project for the founder to scratch an itch, makes you wonder if it’s really better or just another option, also the no sync feature might be a dealbreaker for anyone who needs to access their notes on multiple devices Secure local storage is cool but if your browser crashes or you clear cache, isn't all your data gone? it's a risk worth considering, feels like a niche solution to a common problem, interesting idea tho

Hey, love the idea behind your new app, so simple yet effective, it's amazing how you've made it real in just a weekend, I've been using it and really appreciate the focus on privacy and minimalism, any plans to add features like a dark mode or maybe a way to organize thoughts better perhaps through folders or tags, it's super useful as it is but I'm curious about what's next for it

Wow, it’s great to be able to quickly capture my creativity and thoughts,Thank you for building it

This is the definition of simple! And simple wins anytime, any day Congratulations

Less is more. Bravo!! This really calm the main as no intimidating clutter. Just plain blank page. Loved it!

The focus on simplicity and privacy is spot-on, @nklmkln! "Something from Your Mind" is exactly what I needed to declutter my thoughts. I’m curious, do you have plans to integrate basic editing tools like bold or italic text to enhance the journaling experience while keeping it minimalistic?

the aesthetics are so good man, are you a developer or a designer, anyways it's a cool product and maybe someday someone will use this to write something fron their mind and that thought will someday be a product on product hunt 🤯

Congratulations! The minimalist design and local storage approach using IndexedDB are thoughtful touches that prioritize user privacy and simplicity. Are there plans to introduce additional features for categorizing or filtering thoughts, perhaps based on mood or tags, to enhance the reflective experience and make it even more personalized?

Somebody was asking me about something like this for note taking. They wanted something simple yet effective to start with. Will definitely recommend them Something from Your Mind. Congratulations for the launch btw!

Wow, @nklmkln, you've hit the nail on the head with this one! A no-fuss space for reflection is just what we need in today's chaotic world. It's refreshing to see a tool that prioritizes simplicity—like, no accounts or subscriptions is a game-changer. The fact that it’s stored locally using IndexedDB gives it that extra layer of safety. Minimalism FTW! 🚀 Can't wait to give it a whirl and start uncluttering my thoughts. This should definitely get more upvotes on PH!

Nice and interesting website It just feels like it takes up too much space on the right side. I thought it would change according to what I input on the left side. But after trying it, it didn’t 🤣

Congratulations on the launch! What a cool minimalist design and cute logo, keep it up

Thank you for building it @nklmkln . I liked the clean UX and minimalistic view. I feel it's similar to CalmlyWriter since i have been using it. Are there any plans to monetize it in future?
