# NoteBot
NoteBot is a clone of Microsoft Sticky Notes, without useless functionalities.
## Download
[Installer for Windows](http://downloads.fdossena.com/geth.php?r=stickynotes-win)
[Deb Package for Ubuntu, Debian, ...](http://downloads.fdossena.com/geth.php?r=stickynotes-deb)
[Binaries for other platforms](http://downloads.fdossena.com/geth.php?r=stickynotes-bin) (Requires Java)
## Website
[NoteBot](http://notebot.fdossena.com/)
## Features
* Stick notes on your desktop
* Can move, resize and zoom
* Custom colors
* Auto startup
* Support for high DPI screens and touch devices
## Lack of features
Sticky Notes became trash with the August 2016 update of Windows 10, which turned it into a "modern" app, and added useless and suspicious features like synchronization and telemetry. Therefore...
* Not a "modern" app: you can obliterate all Metro apps from your PC
* No taskbar icon: notes actually stick to the desktop
* No synchronization
* No telemetry
* Not even an auto updater
* No botnet: it's open source, you can trust this application
* And most importantly: no ugly Segoe Script font
## Compatibility
* Windows XP or newer
* Any platform supported by Java SE 7 or newer
## Usage
Import the projects into Netbeans.
_SETUP contains all the files used to build the Windows installer and the .deb package.
To build the Windows installer, you'll need [Inno Setup](http://www.jrsoftware.org/isinfo.php) and [launch4j](http://launch4j.sourceforge.net/).
