Description Danat 2025-11-24 00:28:00 UTC
Description:
I have an idea of a note taking app where notes can be accesses from the list and also saved as an icon on PC desktop, maybe they can be also organised into folders and those folders can be also saved as an icon 

Writer is too advanced and looks like a spaceship control desk. I wish there was maybe something more simplistic for note taking 

Maybe it can be branded as something like "LibreOffice Notes"

Seems rather out of scope to our core ODF Text document generator.

IMHO => WF

Multi-million euro project, no such resources. There are a couple of dozen open source note-taking apps already. See here, sort by License column: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_note-taking_software

And here: https://github.com/tehtbl/awesome-note-taking

Bonus app not included in the lists: https://xournalpp.github.io/

Thanks a lot, but I would say that I proposed a OneNote replacement, that's not what I was thinking about

OneNote is a cloud app, if I'm not mistaken, where notes are linked to an account and can be accessed from the Internet. But I was proposing a simple offline note taking app. Believe it's not fair to call my report a duplicate of that one, so I'll undo the status

You have to understand a couple of things:
- OneNote was *not* originally a cloud app
- The people requesting LibreOffice to clone OneNote are *not* requesting a cloud app

Therefore the request is broadly the same that you made here.
