Notes: Building a cross platform notes App

The road to writing a web-focused note taking app you’ll actually enjoy using.

What I expect to need:

  • A self-hosted EC2 instance to run an extremely basic application on which is responsible for keeping the “leader” copy of the database of notes up to date across all devices/connections.
  • An S3 bucket to store the database for potential future recovery. (more details)
  • An extremely basic initial API for interfacing with the notes
  • A form of local storage on each platform/browser to hold data when the service is unavailable.
  • A method to resolve edit collisions: probably just link all versions and prompt the user to review.
  • A release method/platform.

Check back for updates to this page as this little project progresses.
