About

VimNotes brings real modal editing to your pocket. If you live in vim on the desktop, you finally have a notes app that thinks the way your fingers do. Tap `i` to insert. Esc to go back to NORMAL. Compose with the motions and operators you already know — no relearning, no compromise. WHY VIMNOTES • Real modal editing — NORMAL, INSERT, VISUAL, and COMMAND modes, not a toolbar wearing a vim costume. • Motions you know — h j k l, w b e, 0 $, gg G, plus counts (3w, 5j, d2w). • Operators that compose — d, y, c with any motion. dd, yy, cc shortcuts. Visual-mode operations. • Undo and redo — deep history (up to 100 steps) so experiments are always reversible. • Registers — yank and paste with the unnamed register. • Ex commands — :w, :q, :wq and friends from a familiar command line. • Built for thumbs — a custom on-screen key row keeps Esc, :, and motions one tap away. PRIVACY-FIRST BY DESIGN • 100% offline. No accounts. No sign-up. No cloud. • No analytics. No tracking. No third-party SDKs phoning home. • Your notes live in a local SQLite database on your device and nowhere else. • No network permission requested — the app physically cannot exfiltrate your data. BUILT FOR WRITERS WHO CODE VimNotes is the daily driver for engineers, technical writers, students, and anyone who already touch-types in a modal editor. Capture meeting notes, draft commit messages, sketch designs in markdown, keep a journal — without ever leaving the keystroke vocabulary you already mastered. FEATURES • Modal editor: NORMAL / INSERT / VISUAL / COMMAND • Motions: h j k l w b e 0 $ gg G with count prefixes • Operators: d y c (delete, yank, change) over motions and visual selections • Line shortcuts: dd, yy, cc, D, C • Undo / redo with a 100-step history • Ex commands: :w :q :wq :q! • Local SQLite storage — fast, durable, private • Light and dark interface • Dynamic Type and VoiceOver support • iPhone, all screen sizes NO STRINGS VimNotes is free of ads, trackers, telemetry, and subscriptions. One app, one purpose: let you write the way you already think. If you have feedback or run into trouble, visit https://moruk.ai/support — we read every message.
