Jotter is a lightweight, no database, powerful web notebook that lets you create and manage notes online safely, quickly & easily.

See [the demo](http://tools.yosko.net/demos/jotter/) or install it yourself!

## Features

- Markdown and WYSIWYG (What You See Is What You Get) editors

- organize notes hierarchically

- manage as many notebooks as you want

- multi-user support (currently, notebooks can't be shared between users)

- no DBMS needed. Everything is stored in flat files (JSON & Markdown)

## Requirements

- PHP 5.3 or above

- write access to the sub-directory `data/`

## Install

### New install

1. Upload it (or `git clone` it) on your server (let's say in `/var/www/jotter`)

2. Go to the corresponding URL (lets say `http://www.example.com/jotter`)

### Update

Currently the update is quite easy:

1. (optional) backup your `data/` directory up

2. just overwrite app files with latest version ((or `git pull` it)

3. That's all, folks!

## TODO

- Next version:

  - remember folded/unfolded folder (will change the save format)

- Following ones:

  - Trash bin for deleted notes

  - Keep last N versions of each note and restore it on demand

  - Option to make some notes/notebooks publicly accessible

- Not sure if possible:
