yo i finally shipped Yotes 🔒

after months of late nights and way too much coffee, it's here.

→ live: https://yotes.vercel.app

→ github: github.com/rajofearth/yotes

a notes app for people who are done with:

• paying $10/month just to have offline access

• "free" apps that secretly train AI on your journal

• companies that can just delete your data one day

what makes it different

• zero subscriptions (ever)

• real end-to-end encryption – AES-GCM client-side, keys from a passphrase only YOU know (lose it = gone forever, that's the deal)

• works completely offline + installable PWA

• real-time sync when you're back online

• dark mode that actually slaps (jetbrains mono gang rise up)

• already has AI-powered search summaries (gemini, proxied securely)

• little activity heatmap because streaks are fun

i legit moved all my personal notes into it. that's how much i trust it now.

what's coming next (i'm adding this stuff literally daily)

• Google Drive backups (encrypted, opt-in)

• proper file support – PDFs, images, videos

• markdown everywhere

• rich link previews

• in-note AI (summarize this, answer questions about my notes, etc.)

• export/import so you're never locked in

built with React + Vite + Tailwind + shadcn + Convex + Supabase. nothing too crazy, just solid tools glued together right.

if you care about privacy, hate subscriptions, or just wanna support a random dude building in public – go make an account and roast me with feedback.

i read every single message. no joke.

appreciate y'all for real <3
